Your name and resume don’t convey your skin color

Your name is (usually) a pretty big giveaway for your ethnicity, and in most countries it’s the norm to have a picture of yourself on your resume

If you want to know what I look like, bring me in for an in person interview.

In the US, it certainly isn’t. It’s viewed as a red flag for a US company to ask for a photo unless the job is something where appearance is an important quality like actor or model. I think the US grapples with this kind of discrimination more than many of the countries where it’s the norm.
