In some limited circumstances, employers are allowed to prefer one national origin to another. This is allowed only when national origin is what is called a bona fide occupational qualification for the position, which means that belonging to a certain national origin is necessary for the job. For example, being of Latin origin might be a bona fide occupational qualification for a role in a movie featuring a Cuban family. Circumstances in which preferences for one national origin are allowed are very rare. The employer must be able to demonstrate the position has special qualifications that only members of one national origin can fulfill.
