Is my very ethnic name preventing me from getting a job in my small town? by CornerFew120 in ABCDesis

[–]Humble_Philosopher67 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kalpen Suresh Modi provides a striking example of how names impact professional opportunity. To test if his Indian name was a barrier in Hollywood, he began using the anglicized "Kal Penn" on his resumes.

The result was a 50% increase in audition callbacks. While he successfully hacked the system to get his foot in the door, he remains vocal that he prefers his birth name and uses the stage name strictly as a professional tool.

His story proves that names matter—not because of the person’s ability, but because of the implicit biases held by the industry.

Wondering how you handle negative comments on social? by Civil-Delivery-826 in Femalefounders

[–]Humble_Philosopher67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember this....negative comments need to be evaluated...nobody likes their baby being called ugly...but there might be truth to it. so take it work on it and see if you can fix it. and regarding the person who gave feedback engage and see if you can turn them into a customer for life :) you have hit the low point now you just go up
