If they don't want you because of your name, you wouldn't even want to work for them. It cuts out the bullshit.

Employers who don't hire ethnic sounding applicants are only doing the applicant a favor by not wasting their time.

Maybe 50% of small business owners... but most big companies and government agencies actually have hidden diversity quotas and frequently take ethnic candidates over whites.
