I don't know what Google does, I'm merely giving examples of illegal discriminatory hiring practices, which I've heard of in conversations with friends working in academia / industry. Sorry for being unclear.

Danielle Brown> Google has taken a strong stand on this issue, by releasing its demographic data and creating a company wide OKR on diversity and inclusion.

Intel> We exceeded our target, hitting 45.1% diverse hiring for women and underrepresented minorities in 2016.
