A tech company in Virginia has been fined thousands of dollars by the Justice Department over a job advert seeking “whites only” candidates.

In March 2023, a recruiter for Arthur Grand Technologies, an information technology services firm based in Ashburn, posted a job advertisement on the recruitment website Indeed for a business analyst for the company’s sales and insurance claims team.

The job posting said that the company was looking for “US Born Citizens [white] who are local within 60 miles from Dallas, TX [Don’t share with candidates]”, according to the DOJ.

    Can we please:

    A) stop allowing companies to settle with the “while not admitting any wrong doing”

    B) stop fining companies finger slaps, not even hand slaps? Make fines depend on their annual revenue and see how fast they’ll behave

    C) start requiring companies to divulge the parson who is the source of said wrong doing, and the person who signed off on wrong doing, and prosecute these persons also individually from the company, criminally if need be

    This way, companies will start behaving a lot faster, or, you know, at all.

    Right now you know that this company will still hire a white dude even though they’re not saying it again in the ad.
