If I saw that in a resume, it would immediately hit the shredder.

I don’t overlook them. I look them over and drop them in the circular file.

I am looking for new work over the past two months, it is horrible. Recruiters are the worst, there are some companies that appear especially infected.

You’d have to be nuts to hire one of those they/them gender people. And that’s because they are all uber-sensitive to any perceived slights.

Should you - or any supervisor - make even the slightest pronoun mistake, all hell would break loose. Lawsuits would appear aplenty!

Better to hire a some guy named Bubba, some guy who puts “attending tractor pulls” on his resume as his hobby.

If I get the opportunity, I was planning to put il/lui for my pronouns. Only foreign language that I know.

One yearHR gave me a stack of really good summer intern candidates. Several would have completed BSEE and enrolled in grad school, others were incoming seniors. I’d started making calls when HR guy left an urgent voicemail saying he’d given me the wrong list. I ignored it and made an offer to a really good candidate who accepted.

Of course he’d mistakenly given me the resumes he had pre-screened and rejected because of what was then known as “low EEO points” back then. My boss backed me up and the HR guy had to honor the offer I’d made. Only year the internship program wasn’t just a productivity-sucking babysitting exercise.

They fail to realize, there are all forms of discrimination, in business hiring practices.

Just take a look at help wanted ads, to see the discrimination. It is the list of things you need to be considered for the position.

They want people to believe, that, only, pronouns are being used to discriminate, against, those that use them, on their resume.

Exactly what I was thinking.
It’s a sign of liberalism.
Which, when infecting your workplace in any significant quantity (and just one of these would be a significant quantity) you’re asking for drama that would make Peyton Place look like The 3 Stooges.

If somebody insists I refer to them as they/them, I insist they refer to me as the schlong lord of the fifth dimension

You’ve got that right. A couple of years ago I was in an electronics store. An employee came over to help me. And he really was a help! So I said, “Thank you, sir.”

Well, this guy (and it was a guy) went nuts. “I am a lady,” he yelled at me. My arthritis was acting up that day, so I decide to just calmly retreat. I wasn’t in the mood for a confrontation. But, wow. I sure do sympathize with this guy’s/gal’s supervisor.

“Pronouns” have zero business being on a resume. What kind of retard puts that on a resume?

To be fair, they should send these resumes to corporations that are expressly “woke”, to see if they are hypocritical.

Imagine this with a really crazy person who says they or them or it etc. as their name. One who will explode if you say maam instead to a woman or sir to a guy.

Interesting. Most trans not all are people with problems with social cues and obsessive thinking.

Sometimes these are traits found in engineers.
