Rejected from 100 jobs, IT worker sues Workday over hiring software discrimination

An IT worker in North Carolina has sued software firm Workday, alleging its recruiting platform rejected over 100 of his job applications for several years based on his age and race, a report by the Wall Street Journal said.

Derek Mobley said that he applied for more than 100 jobs from 2017 to 2019 and later, but was met with rejection or silence each time, with emails turning him down arriving late in the night or just an hour after he submitted his application.
