I’d tell someone that NO ONE gives 100%. A running coach told me once a runner gave 100% if they collapsed at the finish line and needed to be carried to a hospital! “Anything less, and it wasn’t 100%!”
So a boss who says 110% is the minimum is a boss who is just blowing smoke up your butt, OR someone with low standards!
Maybe there are other factors why they didn’t get the job?
Saquesha and Kendrulla not getting callbacks?
It’s the content of the resume, not the color of the name. Unless the employer is deliberately trying to fill a quota, the hiring manager usually has a habit of trying to hire the most qualified applicant at the right compensation.
Now do hippie names. You name your kid “Morningstar” and she (or he) will be less likely to get callbacks. Same thing if you give your kids Satanic names. Same thing for the kid whose parents named him “Adolf Hitler.” That’s the way it is.
Makes it more interesting to pllay spot the white guy.
It’s not “black-sounding” vs. “whote-sounding”.
It’s NORMAL vs. MADE-UP. Single continuous words vs. double or apostrophe-ridden words.
Of course, I’m sick of whites with pretentious names. Most notably so-called “Irish” names and last names as first.
I want normalcy again. My son has a good solid Anglo-Saxon FIRST name. (My own name is a bit unusual.)
Same here.
Their hoity toity reason...
“The AP said white people in general have much less shared history and culture, and don’t have the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color.”
and this from mprnews
“Our style continues to lowercase white, because it doesn’t represent a collective identity and history in the same way that Black does. Capitalizing white is also a longstanding practice of white supremacist.”
The Raggety Ann hairstyle (that seems to be all the rage) does not help either.
I like how she says, “in 2023 this phenomenon PERSISTS”.
How long have blacks (NOT CAPITALIZED) been doing this stupid nonsense, does she think? (BTW, it’s parallel to whites using Irish and last names.)
Let me tell you, 100 years ago blacks were normal. Normal names.
And I can’t think of any blacks in my generation in school who had weird names. Well, my good friend in high school did, but her older sister had a normal name. Our neighbors who were Ethiopian had curious names, but that’s understandable.
So, this isn’t “persisting”. It’s a newer trend.
And what about Asian names? Muh Chih Yang vs Melissa Yang?
White ethnic names? Apollonia Demetreou? Ute Graber? Basia Wlodkowsi? Would they really do worse than Denise Washington?
Who ever thought being named LaDrano would keep you from a 6 figure job?
Ehh... not really. Most HR departments are run by leftist Karens. If you're a white male, you're safest keeping your head down and your name out of the mouths of anyone in HR.
Well hill- considering how much black people hate white people, and hate “the establishment” do you blame companies?
Even Blacks know some names just do not lead to success in life.

[[Who has time to do this crap?]]
Well paid black racists do
Is this a survey of white owned businesses, black owned businesses, or a combination of all types of ownership? Are government agencies part of the survey?
Is the percentage of white people calling black owned businesses higher than the percentage of black people calling white owned businesses?
Orenthal James?
Most blacks do not have “black sounding” names. Only the very lowest class.
