Do you support diversity hiring?

A big NO. Giving women special treatment led to this diversity nonsense. In goverment jobs and seats we have reservations. Diversity is just private sector reservation.

Why you folks oppose diversity hiring so bad? I mean it's the best thing that can happen from an employer perspective. It provides diverse point of view in the organisation and a holistic environment. Ever heard about affirmative actions in the Ivy leagues, the Harvard ,Yale etc. They have been doing this for so long and seem to be quiet thriving despite a biased admission process. Have you techbros ever given a cursory look at the Female labour participation in India? It's abysmal and decreasing YoY. Affirmative actions towards the fairer gender was long overdue due to the historical oppression in almost all societies. Off late if software companies are prosperous enough to give women their long dues with tiny adjustments here and there, you folks are going gaga over it? Those who said "no" read history of affirmative actions employed all across the world and make your own assessments. You folks are babbling so entitled to that one freaking job because you solved a couple of DSA questions more than your girl peer and think you are more "talented" thant her? We are trying so hard to build a just egalitarian society while you techbros have a twisted sense of "equality" and "talent" dunking on people who have been given some concessions during recruitment process. Do you ever read about these matters in depth or parrot something you saw on twitter?

Those who vote yes can they justify why?

Codeforces junky talking about "skill" as if they are going to write prod level code from day one else entire company will be shut, calm down lads both of u will be trained by the same team with same skill.

I dont. But the poll results seem to have an inherent bias given the intuitive grapevine demographic split

Looks like most people in comments are still looking at diversity from a binary perspective of men and women.

No one knows or cares about transgender people.

"92 per cent of transgenders are deprived of the right to participate in any form of economic activity in the country, with even qualified ones refused jobs.

Among the respondents, around 89 per cent of transgenders said there are no jobs for even qualified ones. 50-60 per cent never attended schools and those who did face severe discrimination, according to the report. The NHRC further stated that 52 per cent transgenders were harassed by their classmates and 15 per cent by teachers, forcing them to discontinue their studies."

These are just govt stats, the reality is way worse.

Skilled employee based diversity? Yes. Unskilled? Pretty much no.

Hire based on competence . Idgaf if it's a man, woman or a damn Martian. If you can get shit done, you're in

A slacker, influencer, unskilled should be avoided. If they are not in this circle I'm in if you give them little edge in prioriting their interview.

in some way, diversity hiring means girls can't get that same role on the basis of their skills, do girls agree on this ?
