[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A black woman did something similar with job applications that made the news. She put that she was a white woman and got tons more job interviews. After reading about this I had dh put he was a white man and he was actually hired for the job. [/quote] Actually, the study was done with ethnic sounding names. Those with common AA names received fewer calls for interviews. Nobody puts their race on a resume and even job applications don't specifically ask for it. Do employers still hand out the optional EEO form where you can specify a race? I'm not even sure that's done anymore.[/quote]
