Do the Long-term Unemployed Benefit from Automated Occupational Advice during Online Job Search?
通过随机实地实验，向长期失业者提供自动生成的职业建议，发现这些建议能显著提高他们达到累积收入门槛和找到稳定工作的概率，尤其对失业时间更长的人效果更明显。
Abstract In a randomised field experiment, we provide suggestions about suitable occupations to long-term unemployed job seekers. The suggestions are automatically generated, integrated in an online job search platform and fed into actual search queries. Effects on ‘reaching a cumulative earnings threshold’ and ‘finding a stable job’ are positive, large and are more pronounced for those who are longer unemployed. Treated individuals include more occupations in their search and find more jobs in recommended occupations.
