Hell, in the CCT they got holograms as employees, why can't the SDC too? Much safer anyway.

And if a Faunus doesn't have brawns, why would they get hired instead of someone, human or faunus, who has real muscle?

2-Considering she was effectively a newbie at that point however, being sure that she would lose would only be rational, and expecting her to lose would be logical.

She had no experience, she sucks at combat, and so on. Anyone would've expected her to lose. 1. But what he says implies that literally all the Faunus working for his company are miners, which means whenever he does have other positions open, he hires Humans for them.

Also, the hologram employee is actually a hologram of a literal real person, if I remember correctly. The writers said that the "hologram" Weiss speaks to in the call room is actually a real, living person who's sitting at a desk on a lower floor. So, they don't have AI holograms replacing people in jobs. It's just a way for the employee to do her job on two floors at once.

2. She had been training before she fought the Arma Gigas. She defeated other, smaller robots, and the secretary congratulated her on her skills and told her that she should continue her training at Atlas. She reminded him that she had already stated she intends to go to Beacon. And that's what kicked off the whole "Well, your father said if you continue to insist on going to Beacon, you have to fight this. *Has the doors open to reveal Arma Gigas* It's like super fucking strong, like really strong", leading to Weiss being like "So, you're basically telling me I have no chance of winning."
