The following excerpt is from Franklin v. Adams & Assocs., Inc., No. 2:16-cv-00303-TLN-KJN (E.D. Cal. 2017):

To state a claim for failure to hire based on disparate treatment, a plaintiff must show (1) she belongs to a protected class; (2) she applied for and was qualified for the position she was denied; (3) she was rejected despite her qualifications; and (4) the employer filled the position with an employee not of the plaintiff's class, or continued to consider other applicants whose qualifications were comparable to the plaintiff's after rejecting the plaintiff. Dominguez-Curry v. Nevada Transp. Dep't, 424 F.3d 1027, 1037 (9th Cir. 2005).
