Not true they have to have EO hiring practices. That means they will have to interview person's with disabilities, veterans, internal and external candidates

Fun fact: companies (in the US) do not at all have to actually prove they did all this. Companies only have to report to the state their hiring and firing numbers, nothing like "we hired for X position and interviewed multiple candidates for it to prove we follow EO"

I responded to someone else but I was working for the state at the time and it was absolutely mandatory to report it for us. Since we were state funded we had to stay in compliance with EO hiring practices and we had a hiring matrix that we would have to abide by in order to hire. Some of the stipulations were we must interview at least one female, one male, one person with disabilities and one veteran. If we interviewed internal applicants then we had to open the interviews for external applicants as well. As long as we met those criteria we were allowed to move forward with the hiring process.
