Agreed, it may just be a case of they weren't hiring but then they were or the first resume was lost or a different manager looked at the resume. There are so many reasons what it could be that it shouldn't be assumed race was a factor unless the hotel specifically said so.
Edit: reading the article I can see the guy applied many times before changing his name. I am slightly more convinced it was based on his name but it could still be they weren't hiring but then they were. Or maybe they just wanted to meet the guy with such an awesome sounding name "Jabroski" sounds like something you would say in the 90s when Pauly Shore was popular. Memorable names stand out and make an impression.
these, among others, are the reasons why i didn't take the same action when i resubmitted my resume under a very WASPy sounding name and the desire gets re-ignited every time i get an interview request after re-submitting my resume the same day my original resume was rejected.
Can you expand on this at all? I'm very curious.
i don't think there's anything to expand upon: i submit my resume; then they reject me; then i resubmit the same resume but with different formatting along with a WASP sounding name on the same day i received the rejection; and then they request an interview from me.
