Choosing to call to schedule an interview for an obvious asian man and not an obvious hispanic man. What i mean by this is that I had a feeling that I was being discriminated against based on my race, which is obvious by my name, so what I did was sent the exact same resume to an employer and simply changed the last name to an obvious asian last name, Kim. I never got a call back for the hispanic named resume even after having submitted my resume and waiting two weeks, but received a reponse on the next working day for the asian last name resume. They left a voice mail on my phone in response to my resume, at this point I did not know whether it was for my hispanic name RESUME 1 or my asian name RESUME 2. I called back the emplyer and discovered they had called for resume 2, so they said hi, is this Richard Kim, I said no, this is Richard Blank, and we continued speaking and I scheduled an interview for this Thursday.
