It's unfortunate that some employers/hiring managers need to be reminded that considering an unemployed job applicant does not necessarily mean they are forgoing the pursuit of quality candidates. Quality candidates for employment actually exist in the unemployment line.


However, it is good to hear that soon employers/hiring managers who are identified as blatant discriminators of unemployed job applicants--will come under the scrutiny of State Attorneys General and Federal officials who are expanding Fair Employment Laws to have provisions to also protect the "unemployed" job applicant from selective discrimination.

Soon a spotlight will be shown on such employers, along with legal ramifications, for such behavior which I call "HEAD IN THE SAND THINKING".
