From the article, in bold:

- ryandrake 11y agoHow will they gather data about the job performance of the people who did not pass the interview? Without that, the study is only halfway done.
- jia_min 11y agoThat's true of any hiring system though: how do you gather data on the job performance of the people who don't pass a resume screen? A coffee date? A phone screen? Missing counterfactuals everywhere. To run a full analysis, you need to hire people randomly - both people who fail and pass your hiring process - and assess their subsequent performance. This never happens in real life. However, you can still run an informative statistical analysis based on the variability in interview scores and performance scores. For example, the people who scored 5/5 on the interview should perform better than the ones who scored 4/5.
