ABSTRACT:
This study examines the influence of racial and gender biases on employment outcomes in the United States' tech and finance sectors. It explores how racial biases affect employment opportunities and contribute to wage gaps in these industries, while also investigating how gender biases impact career progression and hiring practices. Additionally, the study analyzes the intersection of race and gender to understand how these combined factors intensify discrimination in employment outcomes, offering a comprehensive view of the challenges faced by minority groups in these fields.
