1. Is the suggestion to use unisex names like Alex and Taylor instead? Do we have to say Candidate A and Candidate B? 2. Did you find Alice was a negative gender stereotype in the post? I actually had the opposite impression: Bob is a free spirit/idealist who can’t focus on his day job but Alice is a practical/good employee who gets stuff done. If the roles had been reversed I think it would have been more likely to raise a flag for me. I can how someone could have the opposite interpretation, that Bob is a thought leader and Alice is a simple worker bee. It seems to depend on the reader's interpretation.
