It seems strange to me that they would train the system on resumes submitted to them over the past 10 years. I presume they judged the ones they hired as 'successes' and those they did not as 'failures'? Or did they judge all submissions as successes, expecting to be testing for 'does this person fit in with the group of people who submitted to us over the past 10 years?' Neither matters much, neither makes sense. What they should have been doing was training it on the resumes submitted by employees who then went on to be very successful within the company. Those are the successes. Those are what you want more of. And, probably far less likely to be weirdly biased by gender or race or whatnot.
