Agreed. I brought up that instead of advertising jobs through the non-profit job boards or recruiting through similar companies, we should invest in recruiting in locations or places that are traditionally more diverse—or at the very least not require EVERY job to have a college degree. I didn’t feel like it landed *super* well.

Also, this DEI recruitment push tends to create a resentful atmosphere. I’ve worked at several organizations where if a perfectly-qualified white guy gets hired, suddenly all their coworkers are like, “aNoThEr CiS-hEt-Wt GuY?!?!1! 🤬” It makes for a super toxic environment.
