It is deeply annoying to me how many people position diversifying a team as rocket science, and not just hard work that they don't want to bother doing.Permalink On twitter.com
-
IMO any engineering hiring process that results in <20% women* is fundamentally broken. Measuring women hires is a metric, but should not be the goal. My policy: measure women, because you can. Everything you do, do for all under-indexed folks (and ideally everyone).Permalink On twitter.com
-
Anyway that any hiring process with poor outcomes (lack of diversity can be a sign of broader problems) is fixable with some time and attention. Some advice: - Start by measuring everything & figure out where your dropoff is. - Build your pipeline. - Have empathy for candidates.Permalink On twitter.com

I will write a longer blog post about this at some point, but I have run this process repeatedly and iterated on it. Now on round #4. 100% it is possible, if you're willing to do the work consistently and over a long period.Permalink On twitter.com
-
Please take this person as an example of why 20% - the typical graduation rate - is easily possible for those of us who do the work. So many people hide their laziness and incompetence behind the "pipeline problem". Scalibq/1296456061239595010Permalink On twitter.com

ideasasylum 20% hired is the metric, top of the funnel metrics are not great because of volume of unqualified men. Post app-review (well calibrated) is a better metric, but ultimately, to your point, outreach is necessary.Permalink On twitter.com
