U.S.Laws May Make Online Job Hunting Harder
j00bar writes "CNN/Fortune is reporting that applying for a job online is going to get harder. 'New federal guidelines meant to standardize how employers track data on the diversity of their job-applicant pool are taking effect starting today for jobs at federal contractors -- and similar rules will kick in later this year at U.S. companies with more than 50 employees. And resumes and search approaches that worked perfectly well before may no longer do the trick.'"
an applicant must "express interest" in the job
Surely you wouldnt work in a place you have no interest in!

I still don't see how a bit of bureaucracy is going to freeze out "straight, white, christian males". These are the sort of people who thrive on bureaucracy.
Yep. Remember one ad I saw last year, seeking someone with 5 years of Server 2003 experience. Sorry, but only the guys that WROTE it saw that much of it, and I think they were making a wee bit more than 28K per annum. I wish I had kept a copy of that for posting...

Pessimists.net - as if life wasn't depressing enough.
For all of those that say white entitlement doesn't exisit, they just aren't white, rich, and racisit enough. For all of us "super-whites" we have a special ceremony on our 12th birthday where we get our "White Entitlement Card." It gets us into to whatever school we want, exclusive clubs, and even a seat in the Senate. A representative from Big Oil even comes and fills up our SUVs that we got from our white friend that owns the car dealership that uses illegal mexican labor. You even get 5 "get out of jail free" times, they punch the card though so it sucks when you get to #6 and have to go to low security club-med type prison.
I can't explain the rest right now, one of my servants just informed me that my favorite endangered species platter is ready for lunch.
Lol! I actually DO meet those technical qualifications, but alas, I live in Georgia, where someone with those credentials could command 16, or even 17 dollars an hour...It's true!
ad logicam Claiming a proposition is false because it was presented as the conclusion of a fallacious argument.
