Message: <blockquote data-quote="MGibster" data-source="post: 8040060" data-attributes="member: 4534">Have you ever been involved in recruiting?  Because almost every position you post will result in receiving many applications from people who are in no way qualified.  And, yes, there will be applicants who try to naughty word their way into the position which is why you pre-screen applicants and go through an interview process.  I understand you don't believe this will pull anyone good at enacting real change, but your belief seems rooted in the preposterous notion that knowing the language makes someone a bad candidate.  Your position has no merit. Have you even read the job description?  Because they're looking for someone with seven years of progressive experience in business, human resources, marketing, or some other people focused functions.  That means they're not just interested in looking at HR professionals.   What makes you think someone at WotC didn't ask someone for advice?  They posted a manger of diversity, equity, and inclusion and I can promise you that isn't a term one typically thinks of off the top of their head.  There's a better than fair chance that WotC worked with Hasbro's HR department on this.And here's a little secret:  HR is not the driving force behind cultural change at a company.  Whomsoever WotC hires for the DEI position, they will fail if upper management isn't driving the changes. This is probably the first thing you've said that I agree with.  I don't know if WotC has posted the position elsewhere or what other avenues they're using to source candidates. A lateral move from a related field?  How many DEI specialist do you think are available from a related field?Edit:  Posted before red text observed.  Apologies.</blockquote>
