Whom Do Employers Want? The Role of Recent Employment and Unemployment Status and Age
通过简历审计实验，发现失业52周的求职者回电率低于短期失业者，但失业24周以内无差异；年轻和年长求职者回电率低于中年求职者；在职求职者回电率反而低于失业者。
We use a résumé audit study to investigate the role of employment and unemployment histories in callbacks to job applications. We find that applicants with 52 weeks of unemployment have a lower callback rate than those with shorter spells. There is no relationship, however, between spell length and callback among applicants with spells of 24 weeks or less. We also find that both younger and older applicants have a lower callback probability than prime-aged applicants. Finally, we find that applicants who are employed at the time of application have a lower callback rate than do unemployed applicants.
