What do you do if you don't get enough qualified individuals from certain demographics? You change the rules thereby replacing more qualified with less qualified.
I know that we won't reach any sort of agreement here, so I'm done with this thread.

You hire the best qualified (assuming you're capable of that) after taking active steps to cast a wide net amd provided that the role is attractive to begin with.
No utopia required. Now, keep in mind that a lot of the most qualified on paper and in the interviews shit the bed as performers. If so, then PIP, term if they fail and try again.
It's part art, part science. Your chances of finding a diamond increase if you take off the blinders and cast wide.
