I think the 'correct' (from the perspective of getting an interview) approach would be to personalize your resume to include skills that are called out in the listing, even if you'…

I've gotten some complements for my resume's layout and it's basically the exact opposite of that. It's based off of some latex template that looks roughly like this: https://www.o…

> no rainbow emojis So it's not possible to be openly gay and hire-able? I mean, sure, that must be true for some companies but I wouldn't want to work at those anyway. edit: on se…

Reminds me of this youtube vid I saw about him recently, titled "harvard & aliens & crackpots: a disambiguation of Avi Loeb." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aY985qzn7oI

Just to add to this, I feel like there's a ton of ways to "accidentally" introduce a lot of bias in hiring: referring everyone from your college's club to the company, brain teaser…
