A tech company in Virginia has been fined thousands of dollars by the Justice Department over a job advert seeking “whites only” candidates.

In March 2023, a recruiter for Arthur Grand Technologies, an information technology services firm based in Ashburn, posted a job advertisement on the recruitment website Indeed for a business analyst for the company’s sales and insurance claims team.

The job posting said that the company was looking for “US Born Citizens [white] who are local within 60 miles from Dallas, TX [Don’t share with candidates]”, according to the DOJ.

    This company simply said the quiet part out loud. Without that whites only requirement, they would have only hired whites anyways.

      Who wants to start a lawsuit trolling company where we scrape, ingest and search for anything we can sue for discrimination and donate as much of the proceeds to charity of a competing viewpoint as we possibly can?

        That requires so much effort beyond basic trolling that I doubt you will get much traction.

      Since they did say it out loud…Let it be known that Arthur Grand Technologies has racist hiring practices.

      Maybe if Arthur Grand Technologies didn’t want their brand associated with racism they shouldn’t have told recruiters to hire only white people.
