Résumé

The results of studies designed to test whether race and gender influenced HR managers’ evaluations of applicants are reported. The first study showed a job description and a credential sheet for an applicant to 374 college students. The applicant varied by (a) suitability, (b) race, and (c) sex. A second study was conducted on a sample of 241 HR managers from a national hotel chain. The results indicate that, while certain participants underestimated the suitability of job applicants, these judgments did not affect their subsequent hiring decisions, seemingly c reating the “Do as I Do, Not as I Say” postulate.
