I was trying to flush out what you were saying. You said that in your family experience you found that the well qualified minorities don't present themselves well. So I asked if you were presented with two equally qualified applicants (just the resumes) would you assume that the "Brad/Larry/etc" would present better than the equally qualified minority?
ETA: I was just curious. People's thought processes are interesting, especially in that situation. My boyfriend regularly receives resumes from people whose names he can't pronounce. (Often east indian people since he works in IT) They receive the same consideration as other applicants. The only problem would be if there's a severe language barrier.
