@Coleo_Kin - i still think it's good for a creator to be exposed to an ecosystem of criticism, even if not about their thing in general & even if it's about it's place in culture, not "hey, fix this". hard to be thoughtful on that level without knowing what that looks likePermalink Look on archive.org

I was going to post a sarcastic tweet asking if wearing poppies counted as "virtue signalling" - but the BBC are ahead of me & have put in a specific exemption for that pressgazette.co.uk/bbc-social-media-guidelines-ban-virtue-signalling-criticism-of-colleagues-and-breaking-stories-on-your-own-accounts/Permalink Look on archive.org

when people post job ads from the company they work for and say: "even if you don't have all the requirements, apply anyway", do they realise they are saying "join a company with policies hostile to under-represented people that I haven't been able to or haven't tried to change"?Permalink Look on archive.org

This was going to be a subtweet, but I decided it was a bit harsh, so I have tweeted it an undisclosed amount of time later. Maybe it still is a subtweet? Subtweet status undisclosed.Permalink Look on archive.org

Anyway, the actual biggest point here is that if you get to edit job listings, make sure you're only asking for requirements and qualifications you actually care about. Because otherwise you'll just filter for bullshitters and chancers. Also, statistically, men.Permalink Look on archive.org

@acciogoals sure - there's a gendered difference in whether people apply for jobs where they don't meet all of the requirements (lots of refs for this, eg this hbr.org/2014/08/why-women-dont-apply-for-jobs-unless-theyre-100-qualified). you can try to fix this on the applicant's side, encouraging them to apply anyway...Permalink Look on archive.org
-
@acciogoals or, since these are not actually requirements, but merely desired things from a candidate... why not list them as desirable, rather than necessary? a clearer, more precise listing. of course you want these things, but could you accept equivalents?Permalink Look on archive.org
-
@acciogoals lots of other ways this stuff cuts across in terms of opening up access: for example, needing a degree, excluding people from non-traditional backgrounds who are already working at this level (this is one that happens in software engineering all the time)Permalink Look on archive.org
