Comparative Perspectives on Racial Discrimination in Hiring: The Rise of Field Experiments
Open accessAbstract
This article reviews studies of hiring discrimination against racial and ethnic minority groups in cross-national perspective. We focus on field experimental studies of hiring discrimination: studies that use fictitious applications from members of different racial and ethnic groups to apply for actual jobs. There are more than 140 field experimental studies of hiring discrimination against ethno-racial minority groups in 30 countries. We outline seventeen empirical findings from this body of studies. We also discuss individual and contextual theories of hiring discrimination, the relative strengths and weaknesses of field experiments to assess discrimination, and the history of such field experiments. The comparative scope of this body of research helps to move beyond micromodels of employer decision-making to better understand the roles of history, social context, institutional rules, and racist ideologies in producing discrimination. These studies show that racial and ethnic discrimination is a pervasive international phenomenon that has hardly declined over time, although levels vary significantly over countries. Evidence indicates that institutional rules regarding race and ethnicity in hiring can have an important influence on levels of discrimination. Suggestions for future research on discrimination are discussed.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This review synthesizes more than 140 field experiments of racial and ethnic discrimination in hiring across 30 countries, locating 147 studies. It concludes that discrimination against non-White groups is pervasive and has hardly declined over time in the United States and United Kingdom, though levels vary substantially by country and context.
Key findings
- Discrimination against non-Whites is ubiquitous: across 129 country-by-race estimates, the average discrimination ratio is 1.45, meaning Whites receive about 50% more callbacks than non-Whites on average; ratios range from 1.0 (European/White in the Netherlands) to 3.07 (Middle Eastern/North African groups in Israel).
- Country variation is substantial, and the United States has rates similar to lower-rate European countries; in the United States and United Kingdom, field experiments show no change in hiring discrimination over the past 25 years.
- Context and institutions matter: larger employers and public-sector employers discriminate less; formalized hiring procedures, transparency, and accountability can reduce discrimination; cultural distance, Muslim religious signals, and criminal background are associated with additional disadvantage, though effects vary.
- Field experiments using only callback outcomes underestimate total hiring discrimination: studies following applicants to job offers find roughly as much discrimination after the callback as up to it, suggesting callback-based estimates understate discrimination by about a factor of two.
Methods
- The paper is a cross-national review and meta-analysis of field experimental studies of racial/ethnic discrimination in hiring, including in-person audit studies and resume/correspondence studies using fictitious matched applicants.
- The authors searched studies in multiple languages, examined references, and surveyed experts, locating 147 distinct studies in 30 countries; they also draw on formal meta-analyses and the GEMM cross-national project.
- Main analyses compute discrimination ratios (White native callbacks relative to minority applicants), use random-effects meta-regression, and compare country, group, and study characteristics.
Limitations
- The paper states that field experiments are usually not feasible for decisions involving extensive prior contact, such as internal promotions; external validity is difficult to evaluate; callback outcomes omit post-callback discrimination; name signals may connote class or immigration status and only 17.5% of resume audits use name pretests; and there is no established way to use field experimental results to determine how much discrimination creates racial disparities.
- The review states that there are only a few field experiments outside North America, Europe, and Australia, and that studies of racism and studies of discrimination remain highly separate, limiting understanding of how racist ideologies correspond to discriminatory acts.
- Evident from the text: the review’s conclusions depend on the designs, samples, and outcome measures of the included studies, which are not completely uniform across occupations, applicant details, and target groups.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-04, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-04 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
