Notes: N=13,516. Standard errors are clustered at the resume level. Significantly different from zero at 1-per cent level (***), 5-per cent level (**) or 10-per cent level (*). The regular controls are indicator variables for employment status, added quality features (Spanish, no typos in the cover letter, better cover letter, and two occupation-specific skills), gender, resume sending order, and volunteer experience. The full controls include the regular controls plus the graduation year (we randomize between two years), the start month of the oldest job (job 3), the gap (in months) between job 3 and job 2, the gap between job 2 and 1, the duration of the volunteer experience (in months), and indicator variables for the naming structure for the resume, the version of the e-mail script, the formatting of the e-mail, the structure of the subject line in the e-mail, the opening greeting in the e-mail, the structure of the e-mail, the structure of the e-mail signature, the domain of the e-mail address, the voicemail greeting. We also tested for β2 = α2 (β3 = α3) in column (2) and found that these were not statistically different, with a p-value of 0.2830 (0.9186).
