If You Lose Your Spot to a Diversity Candidate You Probably Suck Anyway
Imagine this: you are born in a private hospital to two wealthy parents. You go to a private school, live in a gated community and go to a namebrand college without having to work a side-job to afford your rent and textbooks. You have all the time in the world to do nothing but study and network, as has been the case since high school because your parents sheltered you from the harsh realities others have to deal with. Finally you get your day in the sun - you waltz right into three separate on-campus recruiting interviews for the top investment banks. You bomb all three. Hundreds of students from your undergrad college get banking offers, but you don't. Even the fucking kid from the projects who speaks English as a third language got a role over you. This is because you are a moron, not because you are disadvantaged. In fact, you were born on third base and got lapped by the "diversity hire". This should make you think of your own shortcommings, not that of the black dude you got cucked by.
Thank you for listening to my Ted Talk and kiss my ass white men!
Now imagine a dIvErSiTy kid with the same background and same suckiness getting that offer...
I don’t think many people have issues with diversity programs, in fact, I think most people generally support them/recognize why they exist. The issue resides in the fact that you have minorities who grew up very privileged taking advantage of the system.
I think the solution to this is by shifting it towards an income-based program - where low income minorities (or even low income white people) are the people who are given these chances and opportunities.
I get that, my line of thinking is moreso that if you're a great candidate you're going to get a job, and only people that were already on the fence might potentially get dinged because diversity forms the tye-breaker. At that point you just gotta take the L and accept you weren't the best man.
And I do agree it's annoying as fuck when some Uncle Tom ass coon from Connecticut whose 1/4 black applies to the application portal reserved specifically for diverse candidates. Rich black dudes shouldn't do that shit but rich black dudes are also the only thing worse than rich white dudes. It's like someone took all the worst aspects of white and black people and combined them.
Simply not true. Great candidates who are white males that grew up in poverty but worked to network, get good grades, and score higher on tests get passed up all of the time. Happened to me, much more than I'm remotely comfortable with. You are naïve to think this only happens to mediocre white male candidates, but keep believing the trash propaganda fed to you.
Guess I don't expect much from someone with 2 years experience out of college, but hopefully posting idiocy like this will make you see how naïve you truly are.
it's 3 o'clock on a summer wednesday why are you thinking about this rn
its Thursday bruh
Blatantly racist post showcasing your obvious hatred for white people while I’m sure you’re crying racism on the other side. You’re the problem bub..not Donald Trump, not white people, not systemic racism, YOU (and everyone that liked it, and WSO for keeping it up there with that last line).
This is the definition of white fragility. I get called the N-word every time I play x-box. You'll be aight bubba.
This is the definition of “whataboutism”. Sorry the 10 year olds on Xbox hurt your feelings bub.
Edit: the concept of “white fragility” is also racist. You think I’m mad but really I find these concepts funny. Can’t take you (or the world really) seriously.
Lol are you dumb? "WAH WAH A 14 YEAR OLD CALLED ME A NO NO WORD ON XBOX LIVE. GIVE ME RECRUITING PRIVLEGES!"
This is just an incompetent diversity hire who's too dense to accept that he wouldn't have gotten past the first round if he was any ethnicity except black or hispanic. Deep down, he knows he's an inferior candidate who only got the offer because of his skin color and made this post to rationalize to himself that he really deserves all the extra benefits given to him. Stop crying bro and enjoy your diversity offer - it's a huge win!

Finally you get your day in the sun - you waltz right into three separate on-campus recruiting interviews for the top investment banks. You bomb all three. You get all three offers, even though you don’t know what an investment bank is, because you’re a rich, attractive, white woman. Your life is already on easy mode, AND you get your own separate, accelerated, easier recruitment process. You’ll leave after two years to get married to a PE partner and take 50% of his carry a decade down the road when you divorce. Damn it feels good to have a pussy.
Yet again limousine liberals fail to understand that plenty of white people exist outside of their Greenwich bubble.
1. Assume all normal applicants are rich sheltered kids with the world handed to them by their parents
2. Assume all diversity kids are kids from the projects
This is your brain on diversity recruiting. Hope you enjoy that diversity offer bro!
Probably the last time I'll read a wso post on social criticism (what did I expect?). I'm African and one of the reasons Africans don't get along with African-Americans is cuz we think you guys are babies, you live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world but you can't stop complaining about everything "they looked at me funny" "they won't let me in their social circle" "they assume I'm aggressive and that angers me and consequently makes me aggressive" blah blah blah. I'm not completely insensitive, I understand slavery happened and it was shit but you should know, there will never be a price that will make the errors of slavery right, never. White culture and black culture are different so ofc there's going to be tribalism, there's tribalism in my home country where everyone is black ( people of certain tribes don't get jobs, get harassed by the police more, etc.) my point is, if you understand why there will never be a price to make the past right, then you have to move on from it otherwise you have the wrong chip on your shoulder, you're worried about your race instead of worrying about your bank account, do you think you can save the world or change society by pointing out everything that's wrong with race relations? you can't, it just becomes less public but the social tension remains; just remember that there was as good a reason for the world to protest one day before the death of George Floyd, and it's not because the system is fucked up and unjust which it is, but because people are selfish and fucked up, and will continue to be this way till the end of time.
