I applied for a job in couple of US studios and I was surprised that there was a questionnaire about my race...and there may have been more things they wanted to know. I was a little bit surprised, because in Poland nobody cares about those things (and people often say that we now have authoritarian government ect.).  Here you just send your CV and portfolio waiting for HR to respond. Do you have some kind of quota for hiring different kind of minorities in US? If this is what they call freedom in the west, I can sadly say, you can shovel your freedoms deep in the ass.
