It's really easily at the start of a hiring process to say they want diversity. But they don't stick to it.

Plus, people have biases. They discriminate against certain candidates. No surprise there, right?

They always think they're gonna get the superstar who's also diverse. It's a unicorn that doesn't necessarily exist.

They're talking about women or people of color as diversity these orgs need. Hmm. The realm doesn't lack white women tho.

Most environmental orgs KNOW they have a diversity problem. Hasn't changed their hiring practices, tho.

Search firms think there aren't enough interested candidates of color. Wow. So hiring folks don't even share the same myths.
