As a white male I never hesitate to check the African American Female boxes.

I always just disclose it when I apply. They're gonna find out eventually

That does admittedly cross my mind each time I decline to answer.

I don't even put my contact info on most applications...

Yeah, I identify. I mean, if there's a phone or a face-to-face interview, they'll realize right off the bat that I'm a white guy.

Just throw in a gracias instead of a thank you. Really confuse them.

If I was a hiring manager and I came across this, I'd probably NOT hire the guy because it looks like he's a shite stirrer.

I think that information is just supposed to be kept for statistical purposes, and it is not identifiable to you. I don't know how that stuff works out in reality though.

Then that doesn't speak very well of your department.
