For the first time in the six-year history of Pinterest’s inclusion and diversity report, the company met all three of its external hiring goals, along with achieving incremental increases in representation.
Chief human resources officer Jo Dennis said in a blog post Thursday that Pinterest boosted its hiring rate for full-time female engineers to 27% in 2019, topping its goal of 25%.
The company aimed to hike its hiring rate of underrepresented minority engineers by 8%, and it exceeded that number, tallying a 9% jump.
