I just talked with a recruiter that said 80% of companies are posting jobs just so they collect the answers to the diversity questions so they can prove to the government that they are considering everyone. You know, the questions about race, gender, veteran status, and disabilities.

I just passed on an application that asked for nationality, gender, pronouns, whether I'm part of some sort of victimhood "community", veteran status, indigeneity category, or whether I'd describe my identity some other way, for which they replaced the cover letter textbox so I can give them as much useful info as possible. Insane.

Some companies are following a similar pattern for already approved hires using H-1B.
