Well that's sort of their own doing. When you formalize the process of prioritizing individuals based solely on their attributes that have no relation to merit (skin color) then you must necessarily accept that people will presume that skin-color alone played a role in their hiring.

HN is always complaining that tech hiring is broken and that whiteboard/leetcode is a waste of time. So it’s not like the current interview process has relation to merit either. Just filtering for people who have time and resources for dealing with bullshit, which given the demographics of the US serves as a nice racial filter as well.
