According to a new study conducted by Business.com, resumes with “they/them” pronouns are more likely to be overlooked by employers. Managers shared that they were “less likely to want to contact an applicant whose resume included "they/them' pronouns,” per the study.

The study starts off with 400 “non-binary” people who use “they/them” pronouns, asking, “To what extent do you feel that identifying yourself as nonbinary to a potential employer would affect your job search?” Fifty-nine percent of respondents shared that it “hurt their job search,” with another 24 percent sharing that “it would very much hurt.” Only six percent of respondents felt that adding their pronouns would “help” either somewhat or very much.
