If this is a public linkedin post, why blur out the company name?

What's with Utah Mormon men balding at such young ages?

Having too many children at young ages

I have always wondered this as well.

You can only hire the available resumes. That's part of the problem

Yes. But a post like this is going to give a minority pause before applying

As a white guy, I cringe at titles like "Hiring and Diversity Manager."

It's kind of funny to consider a white guy said this:

I don't find it funny. My probs minor compared to others, but still frustrating.

CosmoK

7/27/17 10:23am

funny = interesting

Cougarrr

7/27/17 10:24am

Really? minorities hate white people or something?

Reminds me of the Utah Valley Magazine "Women of Color" cover:

Ok, now THIS is funny/out of touch.

CosmoK

I'm dying. This is hilarious

You think this is a problem?

CosmoK

At first I thought it was 9 photos of the same guy just making faces

mosterlow

7/27/17 10:14am

Maybe 4 are gay? Diversity can be hidden at times.

DogBoy

7/27/17 10:17am

Good point.

NacoCoug

7/27/17 10:19am

and the other 6 are SUPER gay.

zonacougar

7/27/17 10:27am

Do you know those guys in the picture? Do you know those that were interviewed and not hired? How do you know that

slowhiteguy

7/27/17 10:26am

Of course he doesn't. And the rush to judgment without info,

Your post demonstrates why diversity is a farce.

When I went to Mississippi I only saw black people working at the McDonald's.

If only they looked like THIS, then they would be really diverse:

Yeah, that's pretty bad.

What's bad? And why?

Not a diversity nazi? Lolz.

THE HORROR!?!?!?!? Middle-aged white dudes in Utah county with tech jobs?!?!?

Living somewhere predominately white makes you racist, I guess?

CosmoK

It's harder in white areas. Racism can manifest as neglect and the majority
