Graduating from a Top 200 world-ranked foreign university produced no statistically significant increase in callback rates compared to lower-ranked foreign schools. Adding a Canadian master's degree, local references, or government degree accreditation also failed to produce statistically significant callback improvements for applicants with foreign work experience.
Callback rates for resumes listing foreign experience with multinational companies remained depressed at 6.8% to 7.1%, showing no statistically significant advantage over resumes listing local foreign company names (4.0% to 9.9%), and failing to close the gap with domestic resumes (15.7%).
The wage returns from acquiring short-term work experience were significantly magnified for candidates with prior international employer experience, yielding an interaction coefficient of 1.731 on inverse hyperbolic sine daily wages (p < 0.05).
Attaching formal third-party accreditation to foreign educational credentials produced virtually zero effect on callback rates (point estimates ranging from -0.014 to +0.007, statistically insignificant), failing to reduce the callback gap between foreign-educated and native-educated applicants.
