Why is Race important if you wanna work at nc ?

[ImoutoMaster]

I was bored and looked over the NCsoft site then i saw it. If you want to apply for a job you need to tell them if you are white, black, Hispanic or what ever kind of flavour you are. 

 

Here i am asking why is this important ? I am definetly no snowflake who is hurt by everything but even i think this is tasteless no matter what reason NCwest has it will not justify this question in my oppinion.

Did you read the entire part or just cherry picked something?

It clearly states:

 

"Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file." For the part where the box you posted above is.

And on top of it it states:

 

"U.S. Equal Opportunity Employment Information (Completion is voluntary)"

 

Also a friend from US told me most jobs ask for that, has to do with some statistics etc, but idk how true that is.
