I suspect humans are much more influenced by recency bias though For example, if you have 100 resumes to go through, are you likely to pick one of the first ones? Maybe, if you just don't want to go through all 100 But if you do go through all 100, I suspect that most of the resumes you select are near the end of the stack of resumes Because you won't really remember much about the ones you looked at earlier unless they really impressed you

Which is why, if you have a task like that, you're going to want to use a technique other than going straight down the list if you care about the accuracy of the results. Pair wise comparison is usually the best but time consuming; keeping a running log of ratings can help counteract the recency bias, etc.
