If Home Depot was correct in that it was not discriminating, but simply filling positions consistent with those who applied for them (and very few women were applying for customer service positions), given your reading of this chapter, was the firm guilty of discrimination? If so, under what theory?

Yes and the theory is stereotyping

Explanation:

In a workplace women are subjected to gender stereotyping.

Stereotyping is when there is a wrong belief or idea about people based on they look on the outside.

Most times this is a wrong belief or partially true. It is a form of prejudice because how the person is on the outside is not a true definition of who they are.

In this scenario women are made to feel they were not on the same level as male counterparts during promotions, hiring, and payment.

This prejudice was explained by home Depot to be based on experience. They said most women had experience as cashiers so the could only fill roles like cashier, customer care, and clerk
