Are they accurate? Recruiters' personality judgments in paper versus video resumes

作者：

Highlights：

• New types of resume formats (video resumes) emerge and become increasingly popular.

• Whether recruiters accurately infer personality from resumes is under-researched.

• Personality judgments should be more accurate when applicants use a video resume.

• Results show that ‘richer’ resume formats do not lead to more accurate judgments.

• Resumes (incl. video resumes) are no valid tools to infer applicants' personality.
