【C1】______job applications to eliminate discrimination is not easy. Ten big employers in the public and private sectors—including the civil service, HSBC and Deloitte—have agreed to start【C2】______on a "name-blind" basis in Britain; others may also follow suit. In such schemes, those drawing up shortlists of applicants cannot see their【C3】______, with the aim of【C4】______racial and sexual bias. But do they work?
In France a law passed in 2006 made the anonymising of applicants’ CVs 【C5】______ for firms of over 50 employees. But the government was slow in laying【C6】______the conditions for how the law would operate, and only started 【C7】______ it last year. In Sweden and the Netherlands there have been some trials.
Discrimination against job applicants based on their names is well【C8】______, particularly among ethnic minorities. An experiment in Germany found that candidates with German-sounding names were 14% more likely to be called 【C9】______ an interview than candidates with Turkish ones. A review of various studies, by the Institute for the Study of Labour (IZA) , a German outfit, found that anony-mised job applications【C10】______the chances of ethnic-minority candidates being invited to a / an【C11】______. A Swedish study found that it led to more【C12】______candidates being hired.
However, the results from other trials are not【C13】______. A second Swedish experiment found that only women, not immigrants, were boosted by anonymous recruitment. According to the IZA, experiments in the Netherlands showed no【C14】______in the likelihood of ethnic-minority candidates being offered a job if their CVs were seen anonymously, suggesting that discrimination had【C15】______at the interview stage.
Ensuring that a candidate is completely【C16】______is also tricky. A 2012 French study found that【C17】______candidates and those from poor districts were less likely to be called for interview when applications were anonymised. Its authors suggested that recruiters may have used other【C18】______, such as knowledge of Arabic, to【C19】______race.
Going name-blind when shortlisting candidates may be a sensible start, but it is likely to be just a small step towards【C20】______hiring bias.
【C17】
选项
A、female
B、young
C、foreign-born
D、emigratory
答案
C
解析
本句意为“即使匿名申请工作,______的和来自贫困地区的候选人不太可能得到面试的机会”。通读全文可知,作者在文中提到女性获得面试的机会都在增加,故排除A项。B项“年轻的”在原文中没有提及。本文讨论的是招聘过程中人们对于种族和性别的歧视,C、D两项都可人选,但“国外出生的人”比“移民”的范围更广泛,而招聘中的种族歧视也未必就仅仅发生在移民群体中,故C项为正确答案。
