Question: If an HR person gets two identical resumes, one from James Bradshaw and one from D'Andre Jackson, which is he more likely to call first?
Right. Completely ignore the rest of the resume....

I've interviewed two dozen applicants for a job recently in Sales. Two dozen more never even got an interview because their resume was mis-spelled, poorly written, or all-caps (my personal favorite). I never even bothered looking at the names until I was dialing their phone numbers to schedule the face-to-face interview.

Nice job at calling us, but not really calling us, racist.
