I think he truly believes it, but given the totality of his post it's very likely wrong. I'm not saying he is lying or a liar.
Again:
> blind reviews where you can’t see the name or details of the applicant (to minimise subconscious bias).
Its been shown that doing so _increases_ the amount of non-minority candidates selected, not the other way around.
I've done hundreds of interviews and have also never been asked to raise or lower any bar based on the gender or race of the candidate. Would you say my statement is "not true"?
In a vacuum I wouldn't make a conjecture.
Given the current subject matter I would ask for clarification. For example, is one of your personal goals OR corporate goals within those hundreds of interviews to promote DEI?
