68% : My names are not mere letters on a job application, but markers of my identity, an identity that I'm proud of.56% : According to research by the Centre for Social Investigation at Nuffield College, University of Oxford, people like me with Nigerian heritage need to send 80% more applications than white Britons to receive a positive response from an employer.
54% : It found that candidates with difficult-to-pronounce names were much less likely to find their first academic job, and when they did, it was at institutions with lower research standards.
52% : But beyond the difficult first interactions, I have the kind of name that could have a detrimental impact on my life, and my finances.
51% : If I changed my name just to make it easier for strangers to pronounce, I'd lose my sense of self-respect.
