IT Company Under Fire for Whites-Only Job Ad.

IT services firm Arthur Grand Technologies blamed a former employee for posting a job listing on Indeed that asked for "white candidates only" for a business analyst position. The company initially said a junior recruiter was responsible for the post, but later revised its statement to say a former employee had taken a past job listing and added "discriminatory language" before reposting it through their own account. The job listing has since been taken down, and the company says it takes equal opportunity protocols seriously and has initiated legal action against the job poster. The incident has sparked outrage on social media.
