  Insultingly assumes the people they are hiring are not capable.  Rome wasn't built in a day & one has to remember that in relative terms it is only recently that girls were encouraged into the Sciences. My daughter is graduating high school with a 94% average heavily focused on maths & sciences.  If she were born when I was in the 1960's she would have been slotted into Nursing for post secondary instead of Applied Science which she is starting at Queens in the Fall.   Biases take years to turn around, it shouldn't have to come down to quotas, but left to their own devices, I doubt we would see much change.
