Unbias Me Extension

Trying to improve your hiring practices and increase diversity at your workplace? Reduce room for unconscious bias when reviewing job candidates' online materials.

This extension hides a candidate's profile picture and name when you're looking at their GitHub or LinkedIn page or their Twitter feed.

**Why?**
More than two decades of research have indicated that despite our best efforts, unconscious bias is inescapable. But removing room for biases can help. (Auditioning musicians behind a privacy screen, for instance, is famously credited with increasing the percentage of women musicians in orchestras from 5 percent to 25 percent since the 1970s.
