We're also updating our internal review system to obfuscate applicants' names to avoid any subconscious bias during our application review process. We'll soon be considering applicants named "Blue Dart" and "Purple Rover" rather than "Jane Doe" and "José Smith". Careful. I am reminded of a classic hacker koan (perhaps, appropriately for a hacker school): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_koan#Uncarved_block The situation would likely be better than before, but this may be trading one set of subconscious biases for yet another. |
