As the drive for racial equality and justice hits big corporations, VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger says the tech company is updating its diversity policy, mandating hiring managers interview at least one minority candidate for any open position.
on Thursday, Gelsinger said the $63 billion software company has updated its diversity policy in hiring as a result of recent events.
Elaborating on Gelsinger's comments at the CNBC virtual event, a VMware spokesman told CNBC via email that prior to the recent events, the company required that a woman or an underrepresented minority be included as part of the interview slate. "And we're moving towards a woman AND an underrepresented minority as part of each hiring campaign," he said.
Currently, 1.5% of leadership roles at the company are held by Black employees; a little under 4% by Hispanic workers; 26% by Asian workers; 67% by White employees. The percentage of White workers among all employees and in leadership positions at VMware has increased more in recent years than Black employee representation, according to its most recent diversity report.
