Employers want employees that produce no matter what skin color. I am beginning to believe you are either a kid or someone who really hasn't ever held a real job or had to hire anyone. Do you get paid for spouting Anti-American crap?
Okay, here's the thing. YOu seem to have this idealized opinion of employers.
As someone who does job placement for a living, I can tell you, most employers kind of suck at picking employees and the system is kind of broken.
The problem starts at the job posting. They create job postings that more often than not look nothing like the job they are actually hiring for.
Then you get the resume itself. All the resume proves is "Who hired the best resume writer." Resumes aren't even read by people anymore, they are read by an abomination called "Applicant Tracking Software".
Next up is the interview. Interviews are often done by committee these days, not by the one guy who is going to supervise the person, much less the owner of the company. Of course, here's the problem with interviews. We select candidates/ take jobs based on one or two interviews.
Would you marry someone after one or two dates? Of course not, that would be crazy. But we make multi-year commitments based on two interviews.
Now, after all of that, the committee will pick the person they liked best. Not necessarily the best one for the job.
Edit- Oh, I almost forgot the most important thing. Salary negotiation. The most qualified candidate is usually the one who won't take what you are paying. So it's not that you picked the most qualified candidate, it's you picked the candidate most likely to work for what you offer.
Well then tell US all what YOU think it is. Maybe if you would at least TRY to answer some of the questions posed to you you could enlighten US a to why you think AA is such a great program. For instance, if you had a black and white applicant with EQUAL qualifications and your company had AA in place, which one would you hire? You haven't answered that yet. All you do is call me a 'dope' and claim I don't understand AA yet you offer no reasoning. Are you just a dumbfuck? Hint: Funnyfaces don't count.
The problem here is the human factor. Assuming "equal" qualifications, there is often an inclination to pick the person you most identify with. We like people who remind us of ourselves.
The primary beneficiaries of Affirmative Action have not been people of color, it's been white women.
Why would an employer want more skin color and which skin color? Geez are you a stupid shit.
Again- see above. Even if the person isn't a raving bigot, there is an inclination to identify with people who remind us of ourselves. As long as most HR departments and employers are white people, they are going to hire other white people.
