A tech company based in Loudoun County, Virginia, has been fined by the Department of Justice after it advertised that it was seeking “white” candidates for an open job posting.

Exactly, “POC only” job postings apparently are good to go.
Well, they probably needed to learn the cost of stupidity.
The hypocrisy of the lefties knows no bounds.
Not just any POC will do. In the tech industry, you need to look for the URMs. You need to treat those Chinese and Indian males like they are white folk, and discriminate against them as well.
Just say “pale” or “whitish” or “sallow” or “pasty” or “PONC” (person of non-color) next time
They seem to be creating a media event
The Civil Rights Division’s Immigrant and Employee Rights Section opened an investigation in May 2023 and “determined that Arthur Grand discriminated based on citizenship status and national origin after a recruiter working for Arthur Grand’s subsidiary in India posted the advertisement on the job website Indeed.”
I'm willing to bet that wording came from India managers to make sure all those incomprehensible recruiters who work for them only go after US citizens.
Melanin study? Justus better back off.
Are Indians “white”?
They are considered “white” for affirmative action purposes...or used to be, anyway (East Indian, that is)
“Underrepresented Minorities (URMs)”
[I’m happy to be staying WAY behind the curve in my redoubt.]
Some are likely closely Caucasian adjacent, like many Pakis.
I guarantee that the job posting was written by someone from India, an Indian manager at the company. No white American is this stupid. I am not saying the Indian is stupid, but he did it out of ignorance, not understanding the political and legal implications, but wanting to “level the playing field”.
Hopefully this post was a setup for litigation, which should now be forthcoming against tens of thousands of job listings specifying POCs.
They’re gonna’ keep going until we have no rights left at all.
Their lawyers should immediately point out the disparate justice and that the, so called, civil rights division does NOT go after “black only” job postings.
“Highly self Vitamin D creation enabled.”
Companies post “everyone but white/everyone but men” jobs all the time.
If they really did post it as white they were stupid. They need to use the lingo “we encourage non-minorities to apply”. Likemthey skirt around the laws for the jobs they want to go to nonwhite/non-male folks.
Naan-compliant job-Sikhers ping.
