Across American culture, politics, and even business, expressions of antisemitism have grown louder in recent years. It’s not just high profile statements made by the rapper Ye and basketball star Kyrie Irving or politicians increasingly cozying up to White supremacist groups. Incidents of antisemitic harassment, vandalism and assault reached a 42 year high in 2021, the most recent year with available data, according the Anti-Defamation League. And there’s evidence that discrimination is seeping into the workplace, too.

    As a hiring manager I don’t want anyone who’s religion is their whole identity to advance in the hiring process I don’t give a fuck if you’re Christian Jewish Muslim Hindi whatever I care if you’re a good worker and if you make whatever imaginary sky entity you worship more important at the workplace then the actual work we do, I don’t want you on my team.

      That’s not what this is about. It’s about people who simply are Jewish.

        According to the actual study, it impacts all religions. This is a crappy clickbait article that decided to mention the Jewish bit and ignore all the others.

        Also, the study itself is of extremely dubious veracity

        Regardless, that shouldn’t be something a hiring manager should even be aware of.
