Reverse racism actually. Documented too. Myself and several other white males were kicked off of a business program. We didn’t realize why until a couple months afterwards when we had all been replaced by specifically women that were mostly also all non white. This turned out to have been a career pattern for the individual doing it. It set my career back about 5 years and was extremely frustrating. That individual was only lightly reprimanded and temporarily moved out of role by HR. In my experience, I believe I would have most certainly been fired immediately if I had done anything like this, but I am not a part of a protected class. I didn’t allow this experience to create anger inside of me, but rather to stand as a champion against ANY discrimination, as I had experienced it first hand. Even though it wasn’t the “typically” experienced type. It is never ok for this to happen. To anyone.

It’s very discouraging to continuously receive these rejection emails. With 9 years of supply chain experience, I am not sure why I would not be able to at least get an interview for entry level roles that require no experience. Not just this one pictured but others as well. I’ve applied to maybe 60 positions since May, both mid level and “entry” and no interviews. I’ve had my resume professionally re-written twice. Not sure where the disconnect is. Anyone else going through this same thing?
