"For a while, I did “secondary” interviews to help out a new store. They’d do the recruiting for candidates and pass on to me the ones they liked best. I’d get some okay results but ONE supervisor had no idea how to shut down a candidate that wasn’t suitable. I coached her over and over but she had too soft of a heart (I miss when I had one, pre-retail).
This meant I got all kinds of characters. The worst: a candidate who laughed at me. He didn’t have an answer for my first two questions then just LAUGHED at my third and shook his head.
I shut down the interview and made it clear it was due to an inability to complete it. I politely asked if he had any questions and he said “is the job paid by direct deposit or a check? Do you need a void check from me?”
No sir, you’re never getting a pay check from us… EVER!"

Sadly, it does matter, but it shouldn't. Just the usual double standard we're all used to.
I am curious as well. There's three white guys, two Mexicans, an Indian and four black guys and one black girl at my office. The blacks use the N-WORD in every third sentence.
