[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I call BS. No HR person in a company that size would EVER say what you claim, and they know darn well what an affirmative action plan is and isn't. I'm guessing there is more to the situation and the problem they are managing is likely you. You say the candidates who were DEI were not qualified -- obviously they disagree. [/quote]

I’ve heard similar things being said during layoffs, so I don’t think it’s necessarily a troll to think it’s happening in hiring too.[/quote]

This is definitely happening.  A highly qualified colleague of mine was recently told he can’t be hired for another internal position because they already have too many white males.  [/quote]

I was just asked by a partner organization and co-presenters at a conference to ask my boss (who is Black) to present my project at the conference, instead of me. They said, "our panel is not representative of diverse experiences", meaning too white. So I asked my boss if she could present it. She laughed in my face, then got annoyed and said, why would I present your project for you, you know it, you built it, you measured it.[/quote]

Good boss to give you credit for your own work. Good luck with the conference organizers. Sheesh! [/quote]
