Sham Interviews Corporate Americas Diversity Hiring Strategy

In this episode of Inclusion Unscripted, join Margaret Spence as she discusses sham interviews in the hiring process.

Do you really want to hire us? Hiring Managers and HR Leaders, how many times have you used the Rooney Rule in your diversity hiring process? In this episode of Inclusion Unscripted, Margaret Spence discusses Diversity Hiring, Sham Interviews, Token Slate of Candidates, and the Psychological Trauma of Interviewing Black Candidates You Have No intentions of Hiring.

For every Black Professional tokenized by your sham interviews and hiring processes – we are serving you with legal action and seeking Class Action Status. In this week’s episode of Inclusion Unscripted, Margaret Spence will discuss the tokenization of recruiting, retaining, and promoting Black Professionals.

Corporate America is the NFL! Hiring Managers and HR Leaders, how many times have you used the Rooney Rule in your diversity hiring process? Knowing good and well, you had no intention of hiring the diverse candidate because you already had your chosen one who was “the most qualified” candidate.

We have always known that you were using us as a dirty mop in your DEI hiring process – we’ve been Rooney Ruled for decades – thanks to Brian Flores, we have the receipts. This episode is timely because we now have Wells Fargo joining the sham interview triangle…the dirty secret is out in the open.
