Should we also hide the names of the universities we went to and the names of former employers we worked at?

Sure! Why not? Especially if we all know that that is the main determining factor of the recruiter, and the recruiter is completely protected from any discrimination. You can simply lie, regardless.

If the employer won't digitally sign their denial of my resume,or even acknowledge the reason for my denial, I'm not digitally signing mine; which means it's a theatre of discrimination disguised as "filtering" from BOTH sides.

I'm surprised so many prolific firms beyond FAANG still treat hiring like the big accounting firms of yore did/do.

Confused, what are you implying?

[superhumanuser]

There's bias towards certain big name institutions. Perhaps we should prevent discrimination on this basis by omitting those references.

Also, because those big name institutions have bias towards certain types of students - and train them to think/act in certain ways.

It often works, which is why they do it.
