> Given that women are half the population, and African Americans and Hispanics each make up about 12%, we can state categorically that Google's hiring doesn't match the general US population.
But if you account for demographics within the industry do the numbers remain biased?
For example: men account for less than 10% of nurses so if you were to go to a hospital with 50% male nurses they would be way overrepresented. Statistically speaking of course, I'm in no way trying to give the impression we need to do something about the lack of diversity within the nursing profession.
