I would call it "pattern recognition" rather than "cargo culting". Cargo culting is an example where pattern recognition fails.

  I mean. This seems like a good example of pattern recognition probably failing?

    That depends on how you measure it. It accurately reproduced how previous recruiters worked, but this approach might not be the best. The thing here is that the metric "the best candidate" is very hard to find, so people use the metric "candidate that were previously recruited". I would call it an instance of the "streelight effect": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streetlight_effect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streetlight_effect
