What is the point of this statement? I find it maddening for some reason, like it's blatantly admitting that the outcome will favor minority and women applicants over white men. Do job openings somehow discourage their applying in the first place? Again, what is the point in saying it in the listing? Is it a legal requirement or some PC bullshit?

It's how shitlib institutions run. They think evil white men are keeping minorities and women out when they either don't want (women) or are too dumb, retarded or in jail (minorities) to hack the job

It's just a friendly statement that oppressed groups won't be discriminated against at that institution. Calm down.

you realize they say this just so they will apply and it looks less suspicious when they give the job to a white male

Its a safe harbor provision that permits them to discriminate with impunity.

"promote internally"

Some day, I will find the Boomer who made it standard policy to post external wanted ads for internal-only positions, and skin him alive. As slowly and as painfully as possible.

I got my most recent job when a connection basically created a position for me, and they had to conduct a formal search anyway. And they laughed at resumes they got and forwarded them to me. Felt like SPS.

Take a look around the firm that says this. Does it look like they usually prefer women and minorities?

just look at who most of their employees are. once i was applying to a shitlaw firm that was basically all female and all latina. and the partner bios were on and on about how she started the first minority owned law firm in the area and won blah blah female award. they had some similar statement about not discriminating but it was obvious bullshit

but lol if you don't think white firms don't do this
