What the study found
Some evaluators heard a job candidate give a short pitch, and others read the same words. Those who heard it rated the candidate as more intelligent, more thoughtful and more likeable, and were more interested in hiring them.
What the study cannot prove
These were job pitches judged by recruiters and by untrained people. We are borrowing the explanation: a voice shows that there is a mind behind the words.
