[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a thread on here about an early Google employee who’d become an exec there. He went to Providence College in RI. People were saying that if he weren’t a white male he wouldn’t have gotten anywhere near there with that college pedigree.[/quote] So true! Men and particularly white men are promoted/hired based on their potential (studies have been done on this). Minorities have to have been performing at levels exceeding the new position in order to even be considered. And then, on top of all that the person (usually another white male) with the relationship with people who can influence hiring is going to get the job (even with lesser qualifications). Those in power will take a chance on a white man from a no name university. A minority or woman, not so much.[/quote]
