This project investigates whether fair ranking algorithms actually produce fair recruitment outcomes when humans make final decisions.  The data combines:

• Job descriptions
• Carefully designed candidate profiles (constructed to manipulate demographic cues and job-relevant skills)
• Algorithmic interventions (e.g., fitness-based, discriminatory, and compensatory rankings)
• Human shortlisting decisions (participants selecting candidates from ranked lists)
