I'm not getting that implication. They are saying that, on occasion, HR tries to shove a resume down his throat on the basis of race/sexuality when the applicant is lacking experience. That, in no way, leads me to extrapolate any kind of volume one way or another.



HR is literally not allowed, legally, to do that. Given that their entire existence is predicated on not getting the company sued I’m sure they’re well aware of that.

So either OP should file a lawsuit or they’re imagining things.


What law would HR be violating by pushing certain resumes based on favored traits? IME this pretty common at all sorts of big companies.

People don't whistle-blow because its obvious you'll get buried if you do. Just ask James Damore.
