Those are all cases where they were balancing out for the fact that they'd been discriminating against women and minorities for decades and were trying to diversify their employee rosters.

If you have a job opening that requires X degree and Y experience and your last 17 hires were white men despite a bunch of women and minorities having the qualifications, you probably should start prioritizing those applicants you've spent the last few decades ignoring for one or two cycles.
