Amazon recruiter did THIS to hire diversely & it totally failed

Firms have a responsibility to be inclusive, but treating diversity as a box-ticking exercise will never work.

However, an Amazon Web Services recruiter sent an email to a woman with “Diversity HIRE” in the subject line.

The email, which was shared online, was to encourage a female to apply for a software engineering position – The Register reports.

The subject line, however, 'Diversity HIRE :: JOB :: Software Engineer @ Amazon,' was indicative of the recruiters intention to meet certain criteria, making it less about the candidate and more about the issue.
