My boss said Indians do not count as diversity hires at Amazon. Is this correct? Blind tax: 250k
I think in near future anyone other than Indian might become diversity hire.
You maybe misunderstanding that while you’re in a USA minority group, you are considered an “overrepresented” group in terms of hiring.
Indians count as white in lots of companies
Asians.. Indians.. are not minorities. Too many goes to Ivy leagues. Education is another area I don’t think is fair. It should be based on your grades and extracurricular activities, not because of your race. You shouldn’t be able to get in because you’re a minority. I get it, if I was a minority I would want to get the opportunity to go to Harvard too, but I will work hard for it.
If they have diversity in admissions, Ivy League sports teams need diversity too. Let’s see more Asians and Jewish people in sports teams through diversity and inclusion.
I think it’s about more than that, an Ivy League school doesn’t want it’s student body to be essentially be just rich Asian/White/Indian. They want a diverse (more than just race) and multicultural student body.
What about Indian women? Are they a minority?
If it’s a female, yes
Diversity hires are typically defined as "underrepresented" and in tech that would be women, black, and latino.
Indians are default hire. If you think you know tech, there is an indian way better than you, with an youtube channel, explaining you why he is better.
Indians are the best? Where are the Turing awards? Are they dominating coding contests? Nice supremacism without evidence.

How could world’s 2nd largest country, which is obsessively focused on tech, possibly be a diversity hire
Why is a politically drawn geographical boundary because of historic reasons a measure of “diversity”? A single state in India is more diverse in terms of language, cuisine, culture, religion, gene pool, skin color, festivals etc than most countries in the world.
@alsatian, assuming we are talking about the US job market here, not Indian. So, an Indian is not a diversity hire, just like Chinese
