This study examines the effect of speech with Spanish accent on hiring. With responses from different latin countries, the study reveals that the speaker's accent had no substantial influence on hiring scores, adaptability, and social skills. The study reveals professionalism and social identity play more of a role in hiring bias than the speaker's comprehensibility. Future research needs to examine implicit biases and occupational variations to learn more about the effect of accents on hiring.
