What I meant is that if we got a qualified female applicant, she would be a guaranteed hire even if she was less qualified than all other applicants. That's the part that's illegal because it's a discriminatory quota. My team doesn't go so far as to fill quotas with people who have no skill at all though.Oh dear lord, how did I miss this paragraph?
I have a question about the bolded: if she's qualified, how would you be giving illegal preference? Isn't your whole claim that DEI forces you to hire less qualified people? But here you are, saying that if she was qualified, you'd consider her, but it'd be illegal. What?? She's either qualified for the job or not. You certainly don't seem to have any problem not considering unqualified people.
Is it company policy not to hire women in the first place?
Is hiring a woman automatically "illegal?"
Do you think any woman who got a job in your field is only there because she's a woman?
Don't blame me for my interpretation, I'm only basing it on what you said.
