It might be reasonable for an interview to notice how you dress. It's certainly not reasonable for an interviewer to discriminate against you because you don't dress like a 25 y/o. The article is about age discrimination.
Given that age discrimination is real, blind interviews could potentially help reduce the effects.
- chernevik 5y agoThey're AARP, noticing age discrimination is their mission. Myself, I don't see much of it out there. "Blind" interviews would be bad for everybody. Zoom is already bad enough. There is an enormous amount of information conveyed by facial expression. I can tell by the look on your face if you aren't following me, or if you are super in-tune with it and I get more complicated still. If we're going to generalize, I suspect that most older candidates would be better at reading and reacting to such nonverbal signals.
