I wonder what's the conversation rate for a woman or person of color?
- throw2bit 9y agoPerson of color here. Everyone else have to struggle a bit more. I am not automatically privileged like the whites are born into. I changed my name in the resume to a white name just for a test and surprisingly got more interview requests.
- mrisoli 9y agoSomeone tested this a while ago by sending online applications with equal Ivy League graduate resumés by just switching the name to stereotypical ones(it was something like John on one, DeShawn on the other), and the 'white-sounding' name had an overwhelmingly higher number of responses.
