It’s time for an interview, and you’re ready. Your suit is back from the dry cleaner. Your resumé is printed on nice paper. You’ve Googled the interview address and calculated how long it’s going to take you to get there. You’ve checked the website of your prospective employer and studied the bios of the people you’re going to meet. You think you’re fully prepared, but wait—what to do about the gay thing?
As members of the LGBT community, our diversity is not written on our faces. It is not displayed in our skin color or in our accents. In fact, LGBT diversity—our diversity—is in many ways its own unique animal. Unlike other diverse candidates, you can choose whether to highlight your status as a member of the LGBT community or not discuss it at all. In other words, you are entirely in control of the decision whether to be gay or not gay in an interview.
