Job requirements may be such that the interviewing of a disproportionate number of minority candidates is necessary to find the number of qualified minority persons to meet affirmative action goals. Although the courts have not specifically ruled on this practice, the current trend in court rulings suggests that a complaint by majority applicants in such circumstances would be upheld by the courts. This could mean, however, that an employer is impeded from finding a sufficient number of qualified minority persons to meet affirmative action hiring goals. Either way, the business is found to violate fair employment practices. The courts must consider this circumstance and set policy that will give employers a way through this difficulty without violating the intent of fair-hiring laws.
