Persona comparison
Purpose
Record exposure difference across continuous, gap, return-to-work, and control profiles.
What is observed
Exposure difference across career-continuity conditions.
What is not concluded
Does not infer discriminatory intent from a gap, an omission, or a ranking change.
Condition setup
Configured conditions: continuous career, career gap, return-to-work, and a continuity-unspecified control. Skills, experience level, role, location, and industry are held comparable. Synthetic profiles only.

INFERENCE

DERIVED COMPARISON · NO MATERIAL DIFFERENCE OBSERVED

Completed observations show the same visible option set and ranks under these conditions. Ranking differences are observations of exposure, not conclusions about intent or fairness. This table is not an overall score.

Rank Exposure Distance describes how many shared options changed position relative to the control, plus Top 5 / Top 10 entry and exit, and the largest absolute rank change. It is a descriptive comparison, not a quality score.
