Get an envelope. Put the number of resumes in it on the front. Sign it. Get back that number of resumes. Seriously this isn't a hard problem to solve. This should be standard practice for all businesses though I don't think that it will happen any time soon. All application processes should be as double blind as possible. So 2 people collect the resumes they number then and send it off to the redactor. The redactor send the envelope to HR/hiring manager. Then from that people should be selected. When interviewed people should be administered a test to look for competence if necessary and if not only then the interview should be conducted in such a way that the persons background, race, and gender should be obscured. I understand that much of the value of a person on a team is how well they get along with the people who they work with so this needs to be addressed. Either with some kind of trail period where their coworkers can file complaints but they have to be weighed against their productivity as judged by a neutral party so people can't just vote minorities and/or genders off the island per say. This is infeasible to implement but would be fair.
