They could look at her and potentially think “DEI hire,” or they could not think about her at all because she wasn’t hired due to some factor relating to her racial background. What bass-ackwards logic.
That’s not how I read it at all. You’re so close to figuring out why POCs need DEI. You GF can’t get a job without DEI because of racism. Regardless of her skill or experience. DEI forces employers to look beyond skin colour.
?? I’ve worked in hiring and seen a meeting where managers were informed of a new goal to make teams “50% diverse”. You also literally ignored the content of my other comment that included a source.
Inform yourself
Unless you can articulate extremely well how DEI works, I’m going to (likely correctly) assume you’re not informed
When faced with two evenly matched employees, choose the one that increases diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace.
The candidates are equally qualified… If a straight, white, male candidate is more qualified than a black lesbian woman, then nothing is stopping them from going with the white dude. DEI is only meant to come into play when the candidates are equal in all other aspects.
If you’ve experienced it done wrong, that’s a bummer… Doesn’t mean we should do away with it completely. Worst case, we end up erring on the side of having more diversity. Oh no. How awful.
The current and historical framework has meant that straight, white, dudes are the default. So if we’re “accidentally” going the other way sometimes, then I can live with that. I say this as a straight, white, male.
DEI was implemented because without it, equally qualified minorities don’t get hired, there’s been endless studies on this. Stop falling for racist propaganda.

Lmao thanks for implying my girlfriend wouldn’t get a job without being a minority you racist

This guy is desperate for a troll
Are you aware of, like, all of American history?
Your girlfriend works with racists. That’s not the fault of DEI.
How is it racist if the bar is lower for minorities? They will be able to get the job at lower performance
That’s literally not how DEI works. Inform yourself.

Tbh I agree with this framework
Congrats, you agree with DEI.
