简历名字被歧视？多大研究教你如何“白化”你的英文名！

小编上次编译过一篇文章《避免歧视|多伦多人才招聘将考虑采取blind模式》http://www.wenba.ca/article/4209
 
虽然有人提议要把简历里的名字给隐藏，来避免职场歧视，但是毕竟只是提议，目前并没有被所有公司所接受...
 
找工作的小伙伴很可能经常会看见这么一句话...


 
听起来是不是很美...但是往往敢贴这么一句话的公司都是只招PR或有公民身份的...
 
没有身份的留学生不如难民...
 
所以说...小伙伴们就不要骗自己了...还是想想该如何包装自己吧！！！


Sonia Kang, an assistant professor of organizational behaviour and human resources management at the Rotman School of Management, is lead author of a major study that looks at race and resumes in the labour market.
 
有一位U of T的学者做了一个两年的调查，发现有40%Minority求职者为了能找到一份工作，会在简历上使用英语化的名字，并且对自己的种族只字不提。
 
这种方法称之为“resume whitening”——“白化”简历！
 
比如：
 
Lamar J. Smith改成L. James Smith
 
Lei Zhang改成Luke Zhang
 
结果简历回应率猛增！！！
 
该研究表明, 如果黑人求职者的简历里用的是自己的非裔名字，并且列出了与黑人相关的经验的话，那么只有10%会得到面试机会。
 
但是，如果黑人求职者把自己的名字“白化”，并且删除与黑人相关的经验之后，面试机会猛增至25.5%！
 
亚裔求职者若是用自己的亚洲音的名字和在亚洲的经验的话，只有11.5%能接到面试电话。“白化”简历之后，会升到21%。
 
小编看到这里...真觉得职场歧视太可怕...
 
难道职场就这么没有情怀么？
 
黑人学生：
 
“I am very involved in black organizations on campus... Association of Black Women, Black Students’ Association, Black Christian Fellowship. I was a little hesitant about having so many black organizations on my resumé,” a female college senior told researchers.
 
华裔学生：
 
“Freshman year in my resumé I put my legal name, which is very Chinese-sounding. And then I went to Career Services, and they told me to put my American nickname on it instead,” said a female senior of Chinese background.
 
没办法...情怀不能当饭吃...毕业季又要到了...
 
小伙伴们抓紧白化自己的简历吧！！！
 
案例如下：

有时候真的不是我们太现实...而是这个世界太残酷...
