  ID: 898 5533 8048 Passcode: 666691Racial disparities in hiring rates are 
 persistent and widespread in the U.S. labor market, in spite of changes i
 n racial attitudes and the increased prevalence of organizational practice
 s that would point towards more equitable treatment. Recent research sugge
 sts that, in assessing job applicants, firms tend to first assess the ap
 plicants collectively, i.e., as an applicant pool. This sometimes leads 
 firms to determine that the applicant pool they drew collectively does not
  merit further consideration. Building on this work, in this paper I argu
 e that racial disparities in hiring reflect firms more often declining to 
 consider applicant pools when non-white applicants are prevalent, rather 
 than only from firms favoring white over non-white applicants in deciding 
 who to hire. Declining to consider pools of applicants where non-whites ar
 e well-represented is a more subtle and less overt form of racial bias, a
 nd thus is likely to persist in the presence of strong norms about equity.
  I further argue that firms’ propensity to decline pools of applicants whe
 re non-white candidates are prevalent is particularly likely when firms ar
 e screening large numbers of applicants, in line with arguments about dec
 ision complexity or depleted cognitive resources exacerbating racial bias.
  Using large-scale data from an applicant tracking system prevalent among 
 firms in the U.S. high-tech industry, I find evidence consistent with the
 se claims.Please Note: Boxed lunches will be served for those who RSVP. Pl
