Recruiting is tricky and generally everyone wants the best candidate I have to employ a lot of people and there is unconscious bias in any interview situation. I also see it in some of my managers - if the don’t have a university education they will often favour candidates with similar background and be more dismissive of qualifications - they genuinely don’t see it as so important not that they are actively prejudiced. I would love to have more female representation in my teams and would almost certainly favour a female over male candidate if they were close. Regarding BAME - The western interview sales pitch approach to interviews will favour some cultures over others not so groomed in ways of expressively telling anecdotes and endearing themselves socially with the panel. Diversity on disablity is also an issue - absolutely need to be inclusive however HR would deny any acknowledgement that someone that needs ‘reasonable adjustments’ maybe more of an overhead and less productive as that would be so non-pc. So if a manager has a small team judge on performance he would less likely go for someone with dyslexia or autism. It isn’t because they have no tolerance of disabilities (surprised that word hasn’t been purged by now). I also see many shocking cvs and when you see these articles ‘I have applied for over a thousand roles etc’ and the person thinking it is prejudice on name or whatever it will morEh than likely be a v shit cv/cover letter that’s never going to be successful however many applications they submit. They need to play the survival game better not assume the world is against them.

The problem with the polarised camps. Weak fearful leadership stokes anger from the other side.

Bill Maher been saying it for ages. trump even responded joking about it,

Shameless cunt. How Americans tolerate this is beyond belief.

What is the renewal deadline? Assume not anytime soon? I need to sort but might as well wait until I know we are safe

Getting used to all this football. Saints have definitely looked one if the best teams since restart. Btw are they covering up all these deaths since football has been brought back?

I also played golf at the muni the other day. Must have seen 2 fucking bikes in total as the traffic crawled.

Hope these cunts at the council are going to realise the city’s pollution levels are going to be worse. They’ll use that as an excuse to introduce a congestion charge meanwhile bankrupting the City. Twats

Shame Gomes off. Very shit

Feeling relaxed at last

The thick are always easily confused

Not the same without panning to the crowd showing a toothless crone in tears. Satisfying nonetheless

That Raggett has true Pompey teeth.

Just back from afternoon session. Great to see mates and TBH nothing that wouldn’t t be same as last year apart from one way system for the pisser. plenty of handshakes and hugs too and think most if us will carry on as normal. 7pints later can I stay awake for MOTD?

Clinton Morrison and Glenn Johnson give fck all insight. Johnson looks like he has been forced to be there

I don’t. think I have seen any panel of pundits without a black representative of late. Micah Richards is actually decent but must be wondering why getting so much work now

Careful you don’t turn into Batman
