Back when I was a hiring manager I also asked my recruiters to obscure the name of the candidate. E.g. always referring to them by their initials and blacking out their name on their resume. I was thinking about the experiment [1] where researchers found that the whiteness of your name affected how likely companies were to follow-up to your job application. +1 to the general idea that the interview process should remove as much unconscious bias as possible.
