There is growing awareness and concern about the role of automation in
hiring, and the potential for these tools to reinforce historic
inequalities in the labor market. In this work, we perform an
algorithm audit of the resume search engines offered by several of the
largest online hiring platforms, to understand the relationship
between a candidate's gender and their rank in search results. We
audit these platform with respect to individual and group fairness, as
well as indirect and direct discrimination.
