[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a little boy named Orion Skywalker.  I still shake my head every time I see him. [b] I recently had a friend in M&A consulting who was lamenting the names of candidates he was receiving resumes for - basically, the gist of the conversation was that there was no way he count hire someone named "Insert Atypical Odd Name" and have them work on the Carlyle Group account.[/b]  It certainly gave me food for thought and helped knock a few names off our potential names list.

Somebody in another company, who has fewer prejudices, will hire that great candidate named [Atypical Odd Name] and beat the pants off your friend and his clients.

Excluding people from your group of job candidates because you think their name is weird is just stupid.[/quote]

Happens to racial and religious minorities all the time.[/quote]

Agreed.  And it's stupid then too. If you are in HR and you do this, your employer should fire you for incompetence.[/quote]
