Minorities Who 'Whiten' Job Resumes Get More Interviews
by Dina Gerdeman
African American and Asian job applicants who mask their race on resumes seem to have better success getting job interviews, according to research by Katherine DeCelles and colleagues.

Minority job applicants are “whitening” their resumes by deleting references to their race with the hope of boosting their shot at jobs, and research shows the strategy is paying off.

In fact, companies are more than twice as likely to call minority applicants for interviews if they submit whitened resumes than candidates who reveal their race—and this discriminatory practice is just as strong for businesses that claim to value diversity as those that don’t.

These research findings should provide a startling wakeup call for business executives: A bias against minorities runs rampant through the resume screening process at companies throughout the United States, says Katherine A. DeCelles, the James M. Collins Visiting Associate Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School.

“Discrimination still exists in the workplace,” DeCelles says. “Organizations now have an opportunity to recognize this issue as a pinch point, so they can do something about it.”

DeCelles co-authored a September 2016 article about the two-year study in Administrative Science Quarterly called Whitened Resumes: Race and Self-Presentation in the Labor Market with Sonia K. Kang, assistant professor of organizational behavior and human resource management at the University of Toronto Mississauga; András Tilcsik, assistant professor of strategic management at the University of Toronto; and Sora Jun, a doctoral candidate at Stanford University.

Minorities Who 'Whiten' Job Resumes Get More Interviews

& there are more studies going back for years indicating the same results.

.....plain and simple -blacks graduate high school at lower rates--not even counting private schools which are mostly white with even HIGHER graduation rates
.....this means even LESS blacks qualify for college and blacks graduate college at lower levels

..AND since they are less than 13% of the population [ whites 67% ] means there a lot MORE whites that are qualified for jobs than blacks [ especially college diploma jobs ] ...there is NO WAY blacks are qualified for jobs at the rate whites are---impossible

lol... who would YOU likely hire sight un seen, 'eh? based on reading past posts & crossing paths a time or 2 with you - i know what angle you are really bent towards.

plus blacks commit crime at MUCH higher levels and HATE whites
.....intelligent whites CAN'T trust blacks--they've been BURNING/looting/rioting against whites/white AMerica

^^^ boom! ^^^ there it is.

 

[playtime]

..........67% that graduate at higher levels and go on to college with lower criminal rate vs 13% that graduate at lower levels/not college qualified PLUS higher criminal rate = NOT qualified for jobs
plain and simple
tons of whites MORE qualified

This is a very simplistic view of racism in America. When the Tuskegee Airmen returned to the States at the end of the war during the late 1940s many of them sought employment with the commercial airlines. The airlines flat out refused to hire African American pilots and only relented due to a lawsuit that compel them to cease their discriminatory employment practices. This was right around the time that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibited discrimination in employment based on race and other protected class characteristics.

What choices did they make that prevented them from pursuing their dream careers?

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Most apply for jobs online today and the applicant cannot be asked what race, ethnicity, or national origin, so, someone is fudging here.

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employers from asking about ethnicity, race and national origin.

You can't steal either, that's against the law, and it still happens .

LOL love your new tag line IM2

Newsflash: it’s not 1845 nor 1945.

I know it's not 1945. Things were much more difficult for them during that time yet they still kicked ass only to return home to a country that still hated them based on nothing more than their skin color. Therefore it is not accurate to claim "In America, Your Skin Color Doesn’t Define Your Future, Your Choices Do" when it's the choices of racist people & the racist laws that they put in place which limited what opportunities were available to people of color. The remnants of these laws, policies, practices and procedures remain today in 2019 and I expect will continue on into the foreseeable future.

I understand the point you were trying to make, but it's a false premise and it's disingenuous to present it as truth.

No it does not. Title VII forbids discrimination and/or work classification based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. But nothing forbids asking about it. Applications for Federal government jobs certainly ask about race and sex, with the caveat that the information will only be used for statistical purposes.

I believe many private companies have similar disclaimers.
