Interactive Research Data

Algorithmic Audit Hub

Explore how Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) process non-traditional resumes. This data represents Phase 1 of our doctoral methodology, highlighting algorithmic friction points.

How Machines "See" Resumes

Select a candidate profile to see how an NLP (Natural Language Processing) parser extracts their data. Notice how non-standard formatting breaks the extraction.

The Immigrant Penalty at Scale

This funnel simulates an audit of 10,000 diverse CVs passed through standard ATS filters. It visualizes the disproportionate drop-off rates for non-traditional candidates.

Stage 1: Total Applications Received (10,000)

100%

Stage 2: Passed Structural Parsing (6,200)

62% (38% lost to formatting/PDF errors)

Stage 3: Passed Semantic Matching (2,100)

21% (Lost to non-standard job titles/foreign degrees)

Stage 4: Reaches Human Recruiter (450)

4.5%

Methodology & Open Data

Our simulation utilizes a customized instance of the SpaCy NLP library, tuned to replicate the entity-recognition behavior of leading commercial ATS platforms. We specifically test for 'Algorithmic Friction'β€”points where human creativity or international norms conflict with rigid machine logic.

Research Hypothesis: High-friction algorithms disproportionately penalize immigrant talent by flagging foreign credentials and non-standard work histories as "low confidence" matches, silently discarding them before human review.
