Now this would be disconcerting if I were on the job market. Also, there might be more to the "white privilege" notion which can make me feel even more uncomfortable, but that's another story - the man, Ansari, changed his resume name to Jason and found a job.
When I applied to University, by default foreign students, even if they had the same grades as me would be picked later than a naturalized citizen. I do remember one course though that got me over the top. It was a math course and I got everything right. I only got 98% though.
I also have some personable and manipulative attributes. That is just cause I'm inline with some older psychoanalysts that admired, Freud's, intellect even if they disagreed on some issues - psychoanalysis was nick named "The talking cure" early on. If I were to be interviewed by AI I think I'd be screwed. Unless the only qualification I needed was finite mathematics (how many different ways can you draw 52 cards from a 52 card deck.)
I'm an emotional person to some absurdity. I'd be watching a movie with friends and I'd be like Oh noes, I'm going to cry with this scene. Don't cry. Don't cry. This is embarrassing. Trying to look dead pan as a tear rolls down my cheek. Pretending to cough as if to say I'm not crying.
I kinda' feel like I've taken some religious tone. Google gives me stupid ads from my posting history and I can just get annoyed. But this seems to be going a step further.
Any thoughts?
