@kaia anyway an example of how it worked at a 'woke' company that i worked for (facebook) is that hiring managers needed quotas in the _hiring process_ (pre-interview)

so you needed to have some women / POC / etc be interviewed, and then making it through the interview process is up to merit (and preexisting biases, really)

so basically this incentivizes hiring managers to actively seek out talented women so that they can hire more people in general

this also means if you're female you're basically getting invited to more interviews and getting rejected, which sucks
