Mackenzie, a college senior fr...y. ( For The Washington Post )

Mackenzie, a college senior from Texas stands for an anonymous portrait in her college dormitory in Washington, D.C., on Monday, November 1, 2021. After a surge of campus activism during the Trump years, a growing number of Gen Z job seekers are now discovering a downside to their political engagement. While employers say they are eager for diversity and advise applicants to “bring their whole selves” to the job hunt, Mackenzie and some of her peers don’t trust them to look beyond ideology. Mackenzie has two résumés: the public one she sends to prospective employers and the private one that nobody sees. They are both accurate descriptions of her experience. But the private résumé, which Mackenzie maintains in case she applies for a job as a community organizer, paints a much more specific and honest picture of her racial justice work on campus and in the community.
