Question

A female manager who denied a promotion to a male employee had said a few month earlier, "That's what we need around here, a little more diversity." The statement had been made in response to her learning that an African American female had been hired. There were three candidates, the plaintiff, another male, and a female. The three candidates all had the experience of having been temporarily assigned to the position in the past. The two male candidates were judged to have extensive technical backgrounds but to be lacking in managerial skills. The manager defended the hiring of the female candidate by saying that she had extensive managerial background, although it was comparable to the rejected male applicant. The manager also found that the female candidate performed better in her interview. At the time of the promotion, the female employee was in a lower pay grade than the male plaintiff. What should the court decide?

Answer 1
