I remember sitting in a meeting going over CV’s when one of my colleagues read aloud from a female candidate’s CV something about feminism and affirmative action. The guy threw the CV over his shoulder. That was a while ago.
Fortunately I’d be applying for a professional position that requires specific educational and work experience. That’s the beauty of medicine, engineering, finance, accounting, architecture, etc.: you just can’t show up and demand a position on the basis of EO.
