Providing Advice to Jobseekers at Low Cost: An Experimental Study on Online Advice
通过实验评估一种低成本在线工具，该工具利用劳动力市场数据为求职者提供个性化职业建议，拓宽其求职范围并增加面试机会，尤其对搜索范围窄、失业数月的求职者效果显著。
Abstract We develop and evaluate experimentally a novel tool that redesigns the job search process by providing tailored advice at low cost. We invited jobseekers to our computer facilities for twelve consecutive weekly sessions to search for real jobs on our web interface. For one-half, instead of relying on their own search criteria, we use readily available labour market data to display relevant alternative occupations and associated jobs. The data indicate that this broadens the set of jobs they consider and increases their job interviews especially for participants who otherwise search narrowly and have been unemployed for a few months.
