Companies aren't even pretending like they don't only want to hire white people now

covert v overt-
you go through the whole 4 stage interview process as a formality - "thank you for your time" and they tag you with the "did not meet the qualifications of the position" or "weak fit for the corporate culture".
That's what I'm saying. At least they're not making us lose our time by being this upfront. Maybe if they all did this black businesses would have no other choice but to flourish.

But then you'll be in another thread complaining about how the legal field is stacked against you because you're (supposedly) black :mjlol:.
it is. :what::gucci:why do people like you, who have no connection to the legal industry or experience in it, always comment on shyt that you don't know about.
after awhile the slick comments look stupid bc racism plays a part in all careers and job opportunities; law is a known for being primarily white network based upward mobility.
It's common knowledge that white people pay their way into the "elite" schools or receive certain looks bc of family connections and it's more often than not - who you know over what you know.
my firm just had a meeting about diversity issues and initiatives in the past week - this was acknowledged, when you have the global chairs of various firms and legal media sources admitting to that - there's a problem.
Out of a 50 partner class - there have only been 3 blacks in the past 2 yrs, if you're going the biglaw route.
There are legal jobs available, but your def not starting at the same rank and level as the white counterparts regardless of the legal options.
Govt- pay structure is not the same until you get the seniority - so for some, non standard ways of using your degree become more prevalent.

I prefer this type of racism, instead of companies gaslighting us and making us feel like it is something we did in the interviewwhen its just good ol racism.

You know this is illegal, right? :whistle:

So you prefer open racism when they have the power to openly dscriminate against blacks and to do whatever they want.....but you call that "power" and something something that Trump would do......

But you want to be a lawyer to help black people, right?

But isnt that illegal? Even if they are open about racism, they should get in legal trouble and be sued to death for this alone.....but people are too soft on racism in the age of Trump
