I was visiting a professor in Germany as part of my research work. One day the professor brought me five resumes and asked me who out of them were upper caste Hindus. I said all, why? So while doing her PhD she had an experience where a Brahmin refused to do experimental lab work as it was considered manual work which was beneath him. So professor first asks fellow Indians about applicants caste and then tailors her hiring process. There's also this tam-bram pat where people feel janeu (can be worn only by upper caste hindu men), you don't even have to ask last name... https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/10/27/indian-caste-bias-silicon-valley/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/10/27/indian-...
