That is a laughable notion when study after study shows that identical resumes with traditionally male and white names get more call-backs than resumes with female or traditionally minority names. You can't get the job if you can't even get in the door for an interview.

Just one of many well documented cases of bias.

He started life in a family that commuted by private plane.
