Please just stop. It is explicitly illegal to hire based on any quota in the federal government or for federal contractors.

The point of affirmative action is to hire so that the composition of a contractor’s workforce reflects, over time, the composition of qualified workers in the relevant labor market from which applicants are recruited and selected.

This just boils down to if there are women and minorities in the field they should be considered instead of just white males.

I am really getting sick of all the DEI propaganda. Jesus Christ, I am a hiring manager and I have taken multiple DEI trainings. There are no quotas and the entire point is to get an average hiring manager, which are mostly white males, to consider hiring someone different than themselves.
