I need to find an example of a job ad that discourages a protected class from applying or legally questionable

Question

I just need to have an example of the ad, website preferrably so I can do a write up about it for a project. The protected classes are groups such as race, religion, sex, origin anything that would discourage someone from applying. Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Wow! So weird that you would ask this. Just yesterday I saw a job listing that said that the person would be required to "sit, stand and walk." I thought, what an odd thing to put in a job listing. It sounded like they were trying to discourage disabled people from applying. Interestingly enough, it was for a job at a nonprofit agency. I saw it on Idealist.org, under the category of education jobs. FWIW.

Answer 2

Honestly, the ads that stipulate woman and minorities welcome. Think of the terms reverse prejudice and then you'll know that women and minorities will be hired over a white male. Proven point regardless of how much experience the white male has,the woman or minority would get the job. I didn't believe this theory so a friend and I went and applied at a job a mock situation we were both happily employed. He was a liscensed electrician and had a lot of experience I had none, but between the two of us I was hired not him.
