The Similar-to-Me Effect. Research has clearly shown that interviewers and supervisors have an unconscious tendency to favor people who are physically and professionally similar to them. This is one of the factors that holds women and minorities back in the working world. Mentors often select protégés that are similar to themselves. And job interviewers tend to favor candidates who are like them. Since this is a hard bias to overcome in the interview setting, I advise people to be themselves but to look for any areas of potential overlap between them and their interviewers.
