Ask HN: In SV, is racial hiring a thing?

2 pointsby HAPMCEZabout 5 years ago
If a company has many employees ethnically from the Indian subcontinent will they be just as likely to hire a white person, black person or East Asian person?<p>My feeling is that they would rather hire people from the same ethnic background.<p>Am I a horrible racist, or is there truth to this (or maybe both for saying something, even if true)?<p>Equally importantly, is it harder to break into a predominantly white or Asian work culture, if you&#x27;re not from that background?<p>Is it possible to say that there is some ethnic group that is more open to hiring outside itself, and some that are less open, based on experience in the valley?

&gt; Is it possible to say that there is some ethnic group that is more open to hiring outside itself<p>The group colloquially known as &quot;not total racists&quot; is what you&#x27;re looking for. I doubt you&#x27;ll fit in.
