It's a weird time to be named Alice Huang. Just ask these women.

Detailed summary

The Nvidia scandal threw tech executive Alice Huang into the spotlight. Women who share her name are feeling the impact.

When Nvidia's Jensen Huang became embroiled in a scandal involving a woman named Alice Huang, an Austin job seeker with the same name saw an opening. She changed her LinkedIn headline to "NOT A SPY" and posted that, unlike the other Alice Huang, who US intelligence officials reportedly believe was passing information to Beijing, her most dangerous secret was how many Chrome tabs she had open. The joke took off. The post not only drew more than 800,000 impressions but also led to a handful of job solicitations via private messages, as viewed by Business Insider. One said they were looking for a chief of staff.
