What you see is what you get? Measuring companies' projected employer image attributes via companies' employment webpages
2021
Information on a company's employment webpage sends signals about the employer image the company intends to project to applicants. Nonetheless, we know little about the content of recruitment signals sent via company employment webpages. This study develops a method to measure companies’ projected employer image attributes based on their employment webpages. Specifically, we analyze companies’ projected employer image attributes by applying computer‐aided text analysis (CATA) to the employment webpages of 461 Fortune 500 companies (i.e., more than 11,100 individual pages). Our results show that projected employer image attributes remain relatively stable over time. Moreover, we find relativ…
High Wage Workers Match with High Wage Firms: Clear Evidence of the Effects of Limited Mobility Bias
2012
Positive assortative matching implies that high productivity workers and firms match together. However, there is almost no evidence of a positive correlation between the worker and firm contributions in two-way fixed-effects wage equations. This could be the result of a bias caused by standard estimation error. Using German social security records we show that the effect of this bias is substantial in samples with limited inter-firm movement. The correlation between worker and firm contributions to wage equations is unambiguously positive.
The effects of an education-leave program on educational attainment and labor-market outcomes
2021
Abstract I study the effect of an education leave subsidy for the employed on labor-market outcomes and educational attainment using Finnish administrative linked employer-employee panel data and matching methods. The adult education allowance is available to employees with at least eight years of work experience and allows them to take a leave for 2–18 months to participate in an education program while being compensated for a substantial part of their forgone earnings. I find large positive treatment effects on educational attainment and changing occupation. The treatment effects on earnings and employment are negative during the lock-in period and close to zero afterward. Treatment effec…

Il controllo dell’employer branding nello spazio pubblico in rete
2017
Obiettivo di questo articolo è comprendere in che misura l’Employer Branding (EB) esprima un’autentica realtà aziendale oppure sia solo una ben orchestrata suggestione organizzativa. Dopo averne riscostruito il significato e l’impatto sul ciclo di gestione delle risorse umane (recruitment, commitment e retention), lo studio descrive tre modalità di controllo dell’EB: il controllo interno, professionale e pubblico. Le caratteristiche e le implicazioni critiche di un caso di controllo pubblico dell’EB quale Glassdoor.com vengono presentate. In particolare vengono illustrati la struttura, i servizi e le criticità della piattaforma crowdsourcing-based di Glassdoor.com (usi ritorsivo, scorretto,…
Appearance or reality? Monitoring of employer branding in public network space: the Glassdoor case
2017
To what extent does Employer Branding (EB) express the real‐life company working environment or merely constitutes a well‐orchestrated organizational image? After reconstructing its significance and impact on the managing of the human resource cycle (recruitment, commitment, and retention) this study describes three ways of monitoring EB: internal, professional and public control. They each make use of a variety of tools in order to assess the extent to which the appearance of the employer corresponds to an authentic reality. Then, there is a presentation of the features and critical issues of a case of public EB control: Glassdoor.com. More specifically, this is followed by descriptions of…
Jobseeking Behaviour Theory: implicazioni per I datori di lavoro e i loro processi di reclutamento

La Jobseeking Behaviour Theory (JBT) è un insieme di contributi multidisciplinari che nasce per comprendere come le persone cercano lavoro e come le istituzioni possono aiutarle a trovarlo. Questo articolo si prefigge di ricostruire un quadro sistematico della JBT allo scopo di individuarne le implicazioni per i datori di lavoro e i loro processi di reclutamento. Inizialmente verranno esaminate le dimensioni di analisi e valutazione dei comportamenti di ricerca. Successivamente verranno illustrati i riferimenti teorici e le evidenze empiriche relativi alle relazioni che intercorrono fra variabili economiche, psicologiche, sociali, demografiche, occupazionali, tecnologiche e comportamenti di…
