Victoria's Minister for Multicultural 4 Affairs, Robin 5 Scott, has championed the initiative. His wife is of Chinese descent and has occasionally felt compelled to use her anglicized name, Jade 6 Scott, to get job interviews. When using the pseudonym 7, the minister claimed his partner was more likely to progress to the next stage of the application process.
维多利亚州多元文化部部长罗宾·斯科特此前一直主张这一举措。他的妻子是华裔，为了得到面试的机会，有时她不得不使用自己的英文名字--贾迪·斯科特。据斯科特表示，如果他的妻子使用这个英文名字的话，那么她进入下一轮面试的可能性就会更大一些。
"We're not talking about overt 8 bigotry 9 or racism 10; this is not people who are going to a Reclaim 11 Australia rally," Robin Scott told Fairfax Media. "This is a much more subtle process, where we make assumptions about people based on limited information."
斯科特接受费法斯传媒采访时表示：“我们要谈的不是显而易见的偏见或者种族主义，而是真正有能力的人没有受到重用。这一过程非常微妙，因为我们基于非常有限的信息对人进行了假设。”
A 2010 research paper from the Australian National University backed up the Scott's suggestion that the issue was being felt by people around Australia.
据一份澳大利亚国立大学在2010年发布的研究论文显示，斯科特的建议是正确的，许多澳大利亚的人民也认识到了这一事实。
According to the university's research, Australians with a Chinese sounding name had to submit 68 percent more applications to get the same number of interviews as somebody with an Anglo-Saxon-derived name.
这份研究论文表示，与用英文名字的求职者相比，名字是中文发音的澳大利亚人必须多投68%的简历，才能够得到一样多的面试机会。
Those with Chinese-sounding names appeared to suffer the greatest discrimination in the interview process, followed by Middle Eastern (64 percent more applications), indigenous 12 (35 percent) and Italian (12 percent) Australians.
名字是中文发音的人在求职中遭到的歧视最为严重，其次是中东人（必须多投64%的简历）、土著（必须多投35%的简历）和意大利人（必须多投12%的简历）。
The pilot program, called Recruit Smarter, will also allocate 13 around 150,000 U.S. dollars to each private-sector company interested in taking part to fund training programs to address hiring bias 14.
这一试点计划被称为“招募更聪明的人”。该项目也将为每一个有意参与的私营企业提供15万美元的资助，帮助它们开展培训项目，以解决招聘中的偏见问题。
