Employment And Discrimination

Just because they have hiring signs up doesn’t mean you will get hired. This happened several years ago when I was younger, I applied for a job at the State DOT. and they had an opening ,went for interview and was told if I was Black he would have hired me. There should not have been any discrimination as to our color-we all bleed red. In my opinion, the reason I was not hired was my name, not kin to the others there and was no respect for my qualifications. This happens at the county level, state , etc. North Carolina has the right to work law and they can hire and fire as they please. I did find a job that I worked for 22years.It took me three and a half years because of discrimination in these counties and they say they don’t discriminate. Good Luck if you have the wrong name, not kin and you are not racially correct. In my opinion it is still going on today. I do agree with the one that said the Economic Development has done nothing .
