I've applied for many jobs where the recruiting firm gave me an online personality test and if I was a fit they gave me an IQ test.

2018-09-01 15:55:39 UTC  

Though I do love their message before the personality test... "There are no wrong answers".. If you want the job there sure are a lot of wrong answers.

2018-09-01 15:56:24 UTC  

well yes

2018-09-01 15:56:40 UTC  

but they can get away with it cause if your personallity is not suited for the job you will be miserable there anyway

2018-09-01 15:56:46 UTC  

I mean I’ve gotten jobs requiring IQ tests easily. What is annoying is the phenomenon of constantly being viewed through the lens of being “statistically more likely to be intellectually inferior” to other people because of the color of my skin.

2018-09-01 15:57:14 UTC  

well if they got a IQ test of you and still consider the colour of your skin they dummies

2018-09-01 15:57:22 UTC  

they got a more accurate test

2018-09-01 15:57:58 UTC  

Do I want to go around giving everyone paperwork proving I’m not a “low IQ brownie”? No. I just rather be myself, an individual.

2018-09-01 15:58:03 UTC  

Being racist when recruiting isn't very scientific though. If I want programmers and a group of people come in then they aren't going to be representative of their demographic.

2018-09-01 15:58:26 UTC  

exactly, its estimates

2018-09-01 15:58:26 UTC  

Being high performing is a statistical anomoly.

2018-09-01 15:58:48 UTC  

if you find a 200 IQ black person and dont hire him cause of the average IQ of his race, you likely arent asian, like i always say

2018-09-01 15:59:43 UTC  

If you don't mind me making comment

2018-09-01 15:59:58 UTC  

you guys still race realist debating?

2018-09-01 16:00:01 UTC  

I DO, GREEN NAMES GO TO THE BACK AT THE BUS

2018-09-01 16:00:25 UTC  

Acknowledging race realism is acknowledging averages. There is nothing wrong with that.

2018-09-01 16:00:30 UTC  

btw im a grey name suppremacist

2018-09-01 16:00:42 UTC  

That black person still has to deal with the inconvenience on a day to day basis of being predicted as low IQ

2018-09-01 16:00:47 UTC  

The problem comes in when you operate expecting EVERYONE you see to fit those averages and patterns

2018-09-01 16:00:59 UTC  

I made the point you're making right now, iike 2 days ago Rye 😦 this was like 48 hours ago

2018-09-01 16:01:00 UTC  

The only thing I'm defending is IQ as a indirect measurement of intelligence.

2018-09-01 16:01:17 UTC  

I made it in the Patreon channel.

2018-09-01 16:01:21 UTC  

so...

2018-09-01 16:01:23 UTC  

hey its the best measurement of intelligence we got

2018-09-01 16:01:39 UTC  

IQ measures potential.

2018-09-01 16:01:39 UTC  

gotta row with the laddles you got

2018-09-01 16:01:51 UTC  

nah, best measurement is the political compass test 😉 Any extremist is automatically dumb

2018-09-01 16:02:13 UTC  

radical enlightened lone wolf alt centrists unite!

2018-09-01 16:02:16 UTC  

IQ measures a person's capacity to observe patterns.

2018-09-01 16:02:25 UTC  

That’s what you’re gonna tell the high IQ black person who is annoyed of all these other people “predicting” them a low IQ? “Hey man I’m sorry it’s just he best tool of prediction I’ve got”

2018-09-01 16:02:26 UTC  

This is, essentially, it.

2018-09-01 16:02:46 UTC  

well you gotta get more data ofc

2018-09-01 16:02:56 UTC  

assuming this person applies for a job you got his resume

2018-09-01 16:03:04 UTC  

Also, As Tim says, it's of far more worth to focus on issues of Class

2018-09-01 16:03:06 UTC  

which is much stronger data then the average IQ of his race

2018-09-01 16:03:14 UTC  

You're more likely to get more far reaching gains that way.

2018-09-01 16:03:18 UTC  

I’m talking just seeing them on the street

2018-09-01 16:03:23 UTC  

i still say tim is wrong on that front tho

2018-09-01 16:03:36 UTC  

Not for a job interview

2018-09-01 16:03:44 UTC  

class is part of environment, which only explains 20% difference between people

2018-09-01 16:03:54 UTC  

For instance - The presence of Lead tends to lead towards lower IQ
