on the surface i understand. but you can't sneak in a "but you really should" on a policy like this. the interview - AS STATED - only says you need to interview a minority, NOT hire them. so he's free and always has been to hire who he wants.
which, while some good things have come out of it, makes the rule a complete joke.
jones never had to say he'd even consider hiring a minority - only interview them. now if that's the purpose of the rule, great. should be no problem with jones guaranteeing the job to anyone at all.
yes it flies in the face of common sense but so does a rule with no teeth. like "no you can't go to miami - you must stay in dallas" well, unless you quit. then you only can't go to miami for 7 days...
