Read it twice and still it doesn't make sense.:confused:

When 100% of females are being hired even with minimal experience and 80% of white males are "not making it," doesn't that seem a little discriminatory?

Not to james it doesn't. He's way too deep in his ideologies to argue with....

Talk to Angie at Cage Consulting. 100% of females are not getting hired. Appearances can be deceiving.

Or you could pull a Bruce Jenner and say that you identify as a woman. Worth a shot right? ;)

WAI - female hiring is twice the percentage of the population pool. If it's just about resumes would the percentage be 200% of expected?

That doesn't make sense.

Yes it does. If there are 20% female pilots and they make up 40% of major new hires, they are being hired at twice the rate or double or 200%

Much better explanation. There are three females in my class of 24 new hires, so that's roughly 10%. I don't know about other classes. I also don't know what the current percentage is in company but that's irrelevant anyways. Why should the current percentage stay the same? Perhaps more females are interested in getting hired as time goes on.
