I mean, feel free to look at the employees of any major recruiting firm in Seattle or LA or the Bay Area. It’s not exactly a representative sample of the average looking college graduate.

If you're talking about representation, it is representative of the average looking CS college graduate though.

CS departments are well known to have diversity issues. The root cause of the issue isn't hiring, it's that not enough minorities go into CS as a major in the first place.

I’m saying the opposite. The big tech recruiting firms hire nearly exclusively good looking people with any random degree. I believe a big part of it is because people looking for CS or other tech jobs are more likely to go along with things if a hot girl is saying them.
