- Abstract
Using a survey experiment, we test whether discrimination against job candidates with a second-generation migration background varies by signaling either assimilation into the host society or attachment to the country of origin. In our study, Swiss HR managers evaluate descriptions of fictitious CVs in which we vary the origin, language proficiency, and extracurricular activity of the jobseekers with and without a cultural context. The findings reveal that candidates with Polish- or Turkish-sounding names are evaluated worse than candidates with Swiss- or Spanish-sounding names. The effect of signaling attachment to the native and host country culture depends on the perceived distance of the cultural background. A candidate with a Spanish-sounding name who speaks the native language and acts as a chairperson in a Spanish cultural association is granted a better evaluation by employers. Regarding the Polish applicants, neither signaling attachment to the country of origin nor assimilation to the Swiss background makes a significant difference. In contrast, regarding applicants with Turkish-sounding names, signaling assimilation improves employers’ evaluation of their profile, whereas signaling attachment to the Turkish culture either by an extra curricula activity or indicating proficiency in both the Swiss and Turkish languages leads to significantly worse evaluations. We conclude that especially for individuals stemming from origins that are perceived as culturally distant, signaling attachment to the culture of origin may result in a higher occurrence of discrimination, even when the signal indicates higher human- or social-capital of the jobseeker.

- Abstract
Objective This article characterizes the resources used by ophthalmology residency applicants when deciding where to apply, interview, and rank. Design Cross-sectional, online survey. Participants All applicants to the University of California-San Francisco ophthalmology residency program during the 2019 to 2020 and 2020 to 2021 application cycles. Methods A secure, anonymous, 19-item post-match questionnaire was distributed to participants inquiring about demographic information, match outcomes, and resources used to learn and make decisions about residency programs. Results were analyzed using qualitative and quantitative methods. Main Outcome Measures Qualitative ranking of resources used to decide where to apply, interview, and rank. Results One hundred thirty-six of 870 solicited applicants responded to the questionnaire, for a response rate of 15.6%. Digital platforms were ranked as more important resources than people (i.e., faculty, career advisors, residents, and program directors) when applicants were deciding where to apply and interview. Digital platforms became far less important when applicants were formulating their rank lists, at which time the program's academic reputation, perceived happiness of residents and faculty, interview experience, and geographic location were more important. When learning about residency programs, 100% of respondents engaged with program Web sites, and the majority engaged with program emails ( n =88 [85.4%]), Doximity ( n =82 [79.6%]), Reddit ( n =64 [62.1%]), Instagram ( n =59 [57.3%]), the FREIDA residency program database ( n =55 [53.4%]), and YouTube ( n =53 [51.5%]). All 13 digital platforms included in the survey were utilized by at least 25% of respondents, largely passively (i.e., reading rather than producing content). Respondents indicated that the most important topics to include on program Web sites were the number of residents accepted per year, current resident profiles, and resident alumni job/fellows

- Abstract
In this study we compare rates of discrimination across German-born applicants from thirty-five ethnic groups in which various racial and religious treatment groups are embedded, this study allows us to better distinguish taste and statistical sources of discrimination, and to assess the relative importance of ethnicity, phenotype and religious affiliation as signals triggering discrimination. The study is based on applications to almost 6,000 job vacancies with male and female applicants in eight occupations across Germany. We test taste discrimination based on cultural value distance between groups against statistical discrimination based on average education levels and find that discrimination is mostly driven by the former. Based on this pattern, ethnic, racial and religious groups whose average values are relatively distant from the German average face the strongest discrimination. By contrast, employers do not treat minority groups with value patterns closer to Germany’s different from ethnic German applicants without a migration background.

- Abstract
В статье рассматриваются мультимедийные площадки институтов и факультетов журналистики вузов УрФО, предназначенные для осуществления профессорско-преподавательским составом профессионально ориентированной деятельности, направленной на школьников. Установлено, что в настоящее время члены приемных комиссий и академическое сообщество реализуют много ее направлений: онлайн-олимпиады, конкурсы, интерактивные дни открытых дверей, школы молодого специалиста и т. д. Организованные нами опросы преподавателей и абитуриентов институтов и факультетов журналистики позволили сделать вывод, что школьников привлекают лишь некоторые формы популяризации журналистики и медийных специальностей. Юноши и девушки выбирают себе будущую профессию, ориентируясь не только на материальную обеспеченность, но и на то, насколько интересно и увлекательно о ней (профессии) им расскажут представители вузов. Мы считаем, что педагогическому коллективу каждого учебного подразделения любого российского вуза необходимо продолжать внедрение интерактивных онлайновых форм профориентационной деятельности, направленной на школьников, активнее рассказывать о преимуществах конкретных специальностей в социальных сетях. Это актуально в связи с поставленными Министерством науки и высшего образования РФ задачами по увеличению в вузах количества абитуриентов (в том числе иностранных)., The authors of this article studied multimedia platforms of institutes and faculties of journalism of higher education institutions of the Ural Federal district for the implementation of their teaching staff aimed at students professionally oriented activities. It is established that currently members of admissions committees and the academic community implement many of its areas: online Olympiads, competitions, interactive open days, schools for young professionals, etc. Our surveys of teachers and students of journalism institutes and faculties have allowed us to conclude that only some forms of popularization and drawing attention to journalism and media specialties are popular among schoolchildren. Young men and women choose their future profession, focusing not only on financial security, but also on how interesting and exciting would be the stories told by the university staff. We believe that the teaching personnel of each educational unit of any Russian University should continue to introduce interactive online forms of vocational guidance aimed at schoolchildren, be more actively positioned and talk about the advantages of specific specialties in social networks. This is relevant in connection with the tasks set for University teams by the Ministry of science and higher education of the Russian Federation to increase the number of applicants (including foreign ones).

- Abstract
Показано, что на этапе разработки стратегии приема абитуриентов в современных условиях важное место занимает формирование стратегического намерения. Названы две стратегические задачи и на обсуждение вынесены пути их решения. Для удержания своих позиций, формирования конкурентных преимуществ и расширения своего присутствия в образовательном пространстве ключевым вопросом является вопрос формирования контингента. В количественном отношении контингент нового набора зависит от контрольных цифр приема и набора на места с оплатой обучения. Показатель качества абитуриента – это уровень его подготовки, оцениваемый по баллам ЕГЭ, и мотивация поступления. Исходя из приведенного анализа, предлагаются три основных вида маркетинговых стратегий нового набора и способы влияния вуза на выбор абитуриентом направления подготовки., It is shown that at the stage of a strategy developing for admitting applicants in modern conditions, the formation of a strategic intention takes an important place. Two strategic tasks are named and ways to solve them are put forward for discussion. To maintain its position, create competitive advantages and its presence expanding its presence in the educational space, the key issue is the formation of a contingent. In terms of numbers, the number of new recruits depends on the target numbers for admission and recruitment to places with tuition fees. The quality indicator of an applicant is the level of their training, assessed by the use points, and the motivation for admission. Based on the above analysis, we propose three main types of marketing strategies for the new set and ways to influence the University on the choice of the applicant's training direction.

- Abstract
In einem großen Feldexperiment haben wir die Ursachen von Diskriminierung gegenüber Bewerbern mit Migrationshintergrund untersucht. Dazu versendeten wir tausende Bewerbungen von fiktiven Personen an reale Stellenausschreibungen in acht Berufen im gesamten Bundesgebiet. Neben der Ethnizität der Bewerber (deutschstämmig oder Migrationshintergrund in einem von 34 Herkunftsländern), ihrem phänotypischen Erscheinungsbild (Schwarz, Weiß oder Asiatisch) und ihrer Religionszugehörigkeit (keine, Christlich, Muslimisch oder Buddhistisch/Hinduistisch) variierten wir weitere Merkmale der Bewerbungen, wie das Geschlecht des Bewerbers, den Notendurchschnitt, ob der Bewerbung ein Referenzschreiben beilag und ob Informationen über die derzeitige Vertragssituation bereitgestellt wurden. Unsere Ergebnisse bestätigen, dass Bewerber mit Migrationshintergrund gegenüber Bewerbern ohne Migrationshintergrund diskriminiert werden. Allerdings variiert das Ausmaß der Diskriminierung deutlich zwischen Herkunftsgruppen: Bewerber mit Migrationshintergrund in West- und Südeuropa sowie Ostasien werden nicht signifikant diskriminiert, während andere Herkunftsgruppen erhebliche Nachteile erfahren. Auch Bewerber mit schwarzem Phänotyp und mit muslimischer Religion erfahren signifikante Diskriminierung. Mit Blick auf die klassischen Erklärungsansätze für Diskriminierung auf dem Arbeitsmarkt - d.h. präferenzbasierte und statistische Diskriminierung - zeigen unsere Analysen, dass die kulturelle Distanz zwischen Herkunftsländern und Deutschland die Diskriminierung gegenüber verschiedenen Gruppen deutlich besser erklärt als leistungsbezogene Gruppenmerkmale wie der durchschnittliche Bildungsstand. Somit sprechen unsere Befunde stärker für präferenzbasierte Diskriminierung als für statistische Diskriminierung., We conducted a large-scale field experiment to investigate the drivers of discrimination against second generation immigrant job applicants. To these ends, we sent thousands of applications from fictitious persons to real job openings in eight professions all over Germany. Next to job applicants' ethnicity (German or migration background in one out of 34 origin countries), phenotype (Asian, Black, White), and religious affiliation (none, Buddhist or Hindu, Christian, or Muslim), we varied several other characteristics of the applications, such as applicants' gender, final grades, whether or not a reference letter was included, as well as information about applicants' current contract. Our results confirm that employers discriminate against immigrant job applicants. The magnitude of discrimination, however, varies strongly between origin groups. Whereas employers do not discriminate against Western and Southern European and East Asian immigrants, other origin groups experience significant disadvantages. In addition, we observe substantial disadvantages for Black and Muslim job applicants. With respect to classic theories about the drivers of discrimination on the labor market, that is, taste-based and statistical discrimination, we find that the cultural distance between origin countries and Germany explains discrimination against different groups much better than productivity-related group characteristics, such as average levels of education. Consequently, our empirical findings are more supportive of taste-based discrimination than they are of statistical discrimination theories.

- Abstract
BackgroundSelecting a training program is one of the most challenging choices an applicant to the Match has to make.DiscussionTo make an informed decision, applicants should do a comprehensive research and carefully plan their upcoming steps. Factors that might influence the applicants' decision include geography, program reputation, specific areas of academic focus, subspecialty interests, university-versus community-based training, length of training and interest in combined programs. Such information can be gathered from published material, websites, and personal advice (from faculty, residents and advisors). This process is time-consuming and stressful.ConclusionTherefore, in this article we elaborate on the above to facilitate this process for applicants.

- Abstract
Dermatology is one of the least diverse medical fields, partly owing to the low number of international medical graduates that apply and match to dermatology residency programs in the United States each year. Our objective was to determine and outline the factors that can increase competitiveness of international applicants interested in applying to dermatology residency in the U.S. Higher match rates for IMGs were associated with several applicant-dependent characteristics, including higher USMLE scores, higher research participation and numbers of publications, strong recommendation letters, and dermatology rotations. Although states with a greater number of dermatology residency positions (New York, Massachusetts, and California) had more IMGs matched from 2013 to 2018, certain states with a smaller number of residency positions, namely Colorado and Georgia, had the highest dermatology match rates for IMGs when adjusted for the total number of matched applicants. Evidenced-based application guidance for international applicants, as outlined in this literature review, may improve the competitiveness of IMGs and increase diversity within the field of dermatology. Rotating and applying to dermatology residency programs in states that have historically accepted a higher number of IMGs may further improve the applicants' chances of matching into a dermatology residency.

- Abstract
Emergency medicine (EM) has its challenges, downsides, advantages, and accompanying lifestyle. Additionally, graduates of EM residency programs have abundant job opportunities. Accordingly, there is an increased interest in residency training in EM, even among residents with prior training. Transitioning from another specialty to EM can be complicated yet achievable, especially if EM is the transitioning physician's passion and career goal. Therefore, in this article, we elaborate on the transition process from another discipline to EM in light of changes in residency funding. We also explore the advantages and disadvantages of transitioning to EM with previous training in another specialty. Moreover, we expand on credit equivalencies for months already completed in another training programs, as well as the difficulties to be anticipated by transitioning physicians.

- Abstract
Although the majority of U.S. medical students predominantly apply to only one specialty, some apply to more than one. When it comes to emergency medicine (EM), applicants may apply to additional specialties due to several reasons: being international medical graduates as well as their inability to make a decision regarding the choice of specialty, fear from the growing competitiveness of EM, or the desire to stay in a specific geographic area. Accordingly, in this article we aim to guide medical students through the process of applying to more than one specialty, including using the Electronic Residency Application Service application, writing a personal statement, getting letters of recommendation, and an Early Match. Moreover, we elaborate on the effect of applying to more than one specialty on a student's application to a residency in EM.

- Abstract
Postgraduate training in emergency medicine (EM) varies in length among different programs. This fact creates a dilemma for applicants to the specialty of EM and prevents EM educators from reaching a consensus regarding the optimal length of training. Historically, EM training existed in the postgraduate year (PGY) 1-3, 2-4, and 1-4 formats, until the PGY 2-4 program became obsolete in 2011-2012. Currently, three-quarters of EM programs follow the PGY 1-3 format. In this article, we clarify for the applicants the main differences between the PGY 1-3 and PGY 1-4 formats. We also discuss the institutional, personal, and graduate considerations that explain why an institution or an individual would choose one format over the other.

19. Muslim by default or religious discrimination? Results from a cross-national field experiment on hiring discrimination

Di Stasio, Valentina, Lancee, Bram, Veit, Susanne, Yemane, Ruta, Di Stasio, Valentina, Lancee, Bram, Veit, Susanne, and Yemane, Ruta
- Abstract
We use data from a cross-nationally harmonised field experiment to examine discrimination towards Muslim job applicants in five European countries (Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom). We focus on job applicants originating from countries that have a substantial Muslim population: of these, some signalled closeness to Islam in their job application while others did not. With this design, we can empirically disentangle anti-Muslim discrimination (a ‘disclosed Muslim’ effect) from the possible stigma of originating from countries where Islam is prevalent (a ‘Muslim by default’ effect). Our double-comparative design allows us to compare the extent of anti-Muslim discrimination faced by different origin groups in destination countries characterised by a varying history of church-state relations and distinctive approaches to grant cultural and religious rights to minorities. We find alarming levels of discrimination, especially towards male applicants from more visible groups. Anti-Muslim discrimination and origin-based discrimination independently contribute to the severe disadvantage faced by ethnic and religious minorities, a disadvantage that is especially severe in the Norwegian labour market.

20. Valuation and Matching: A Conventionalist Explanation of Labor Markets by Firms' Recruitment Channels

Larquier, Guillemette de, Rieucau, Géraldine, Larquier, Guillemette de, and Rieucau, Géraldine
- Abstract
In line with the conventionalist works on recruitment and intermediation in the labor market, this article argues that, in order to shape uncertainty about the quality of matching, recruitment channels used by firms rely on "investments in forms." The first investment corresponds to the definition of the boundaries of the labor market (i.e., the outline of the labor supply from the firm's point of view); the second one corresponds to the format of information (i.e., the "standard" or "personalized" language used by channels to convey information). The firm’s resort to a given channel is explained by its internal organization and its valuation of what is a good applicant (depending on its "labor quality con-vention"). By crossing-over the two types of investment in forms, we distinguish four matching dynamics. Each type of dynamics is illustrated by examples coming from a qualitative survey of recruitment practices in four French service oriented sectors.

Our objective was to determine and outline the factors that can increase competitiveness of international applicants interested in applying to dermatology residency in the U.S. Higher match rates for IMGs were associated with several applicant-dependent characteristics, including higher USMLE scores, higher research participation and numbers of publications, strong recommendation letters, and dermatology rotations. Although states with a greater number of dermatology residency positions (New York, Massachusetts, and California) had more IMGs matched from 2013 to 2018, certain states with a smaller number of residency positions, namely Colorado and Georgia, had the highest dermatology match rates for IMGs when adjusted for the total number of matched applicants. Evidenced-based application guidance for international applicants, as outlined in this literature review, may improve the competitiveness of IMGs and increase diversity within the field of dermatology. Rotating and applying to dermatology residency programs in states that have historically accepted a higher number of IMGs may further improve the applicants' chances of matching into a dermatology residency.

- Abstract
Emergency medicine (EM) has its challenges, downsides, advantages, and accompanying lifestyle. Additionally, graduates of EM residency programs have abundant job opportunities. Accordingly, there is an increased interest in residency training in EM, even among residents with prior training. Transitioning from another specialty to EM can be complicated yet achievable, especially if EM is the transitioning physician's passion and career goal. Therefore, in this article, we elaborate on the transition process from another discipline to EM in light of changes in residency funding. We also explore the advantages and disadvantages of transitioning to EM with previous training in another specialty. Moreover, we expand on credit equivalencies for months already completed in another training programs, as well as the difficulties to be anticipated by transitioning physicians.

- Abstract
Although the majority of U.S. medical students predominantly apply to only one specialty, some apply to more than one. When it comes to emergency medicine (EM), applicants may apply to additional specialties due to several reasons: being international medical graduates as well as their inability to make a decision regarding the choice of specialty, fear from the growing competitiveness of EM, or the desire to stay in a specific geographic area. Accordingly, in this article we aim to guide medical students through the process of applying to more than one specialty, including using the Electronic Residency Application Service application, writing a personal statement, getting letters of recommendation, and an Early Match. Moreover, we elaborate on the effect of applying to more than one specialty on a student's application to a residency in EM.

- Abstract
Postgraduate training in emergency medicine (EM) varies in length among different programs. This fact creates a dilemma for applicants to the specialty of EM and prevents EM educators from reaching a consensus regarding the optimal length of training. Historically, EM training existed in the postgraduate year (PGY) 1-3, 2-4, and 1-4 formats, until the PGY 2-4 program became obsolete in 2011-2012. Currently, three-quarters of EM programs follow the PGY 1-3 format. In this article, we clarify for the applicants the main differences between the PGY 1-3 and PGY 1-4 formats. We also discuss the institutional, personal, and graduate considerations that explain why an institution or an individual would choose one format over the other.

- Abstract
BackgroundSelecting a training program is one of the most challenging choices an applicant to the Match has to make.DiscussionTo make an informed decision, applicants should do a comprehensive research and carefully plan their upcoming steps. Factors that might influence the applicants' decision include geography, program reputation, specific areas of academic focus, subspecialty interests, university-versus community-based training, length of training and interest in combined programs. Such information can be gathered from published material, websites, and personal advice (from faculty, residents and advisors). This process is time-consuming and stressful.ConclusionTherefore, in this article we elaborate on the above to facilitate this process for applicants.

- Abstract
The article focuses on factors influencing employer selection from the perspective of graduates of the University of Economics and Management. The aim of the article is to identify factors affecting attractiveness of organization and to determine the impact of these factors on the choice of employer in terms of the different focus of the applicants. Primary research included a questionnaire (n = 238 respondents), 4 focus groups and two individual interviews. The results of primary research have shown that the most important areas are: a prestigious and respected company, a purely Czech company, a stable established company with tradition, TOP employer, a socially responsible company, possibility of career growth, possibility of further development, the opportunity to participate in corporate goals, participation in decision making and management of the company, the possibility to apply creativity, innovation and ideas, individual work, interesting work, challenge work, ambitious project, financial remuneration, corporate benefits and geographic availability of the organization. The research also showed that preferences can be divided into factors that indicate whether an organization becomes a selected (attractive) employer based on the candidate's specific focus. Factor analysis has shown that different factors are important for identified types of candidates. The output of the article is a recommendation on what factors organization should focus on to address a particular type of candidate.

The migration to Sweden has increased in the last few years and in order to diminishsegregation and unemployment among the population, it has been a prioritized matterto help the migrants to enter the Swedish labour market. Employers that set languagerequirements when recruiting can reduce the possibility for a person with a differentethnical background to obtain employment. These language requirements can beappropriate and necessary to achieve a legitimate purpose. This study aims toinvestigate in which cases the employer has the right to set a language requirementand in which circumstances setting the requirement is discriminatory on grounds ofethnicity. In order to answer the research question, a legal dogmatic method has beenused.The investigation indicates that the court judge discrimination on grounds of ethnicityvery restrictively and in some cases fails to enforce the law correctly. Employersseem to evade sanctions easily, for example by implying that the decision is based onthe applicant’s personal qualities. This could be a reason why there are only a fewcases taken to the court.

- Abstract
We investigate the effect of spells of no formal employment of young Germans on their chances of entering the labor market. We also study whether the potential negative effects of such spells can be mitigated by publicly provided training measures. In a field experiment, fictitious applications were sent to firms advertising an apprenticeship position for office manager. Our results show that applicants who have been out of school for two years are not less likely to be invited compared to applicants who apply during their last year of schooling. Among the two applicant types who have been out of school for two years, applicants who have taken part in a training course are significantly more likely to pass the first step in the recruitment process than those without supplementary schooling. Our findings can be explained with signaling and human capital theory while there is no evidence of stigma effects. (author's abstract)

A theoretical construction is used as a method in order to grasp what the experts and applicants consider. The thesis draws theoretical inspiration from the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu especially his work on social practice and his explanations within praxeological knowledge.

Inspired by Bourdieu’s concepts, the appointment process is made visible grounded on documentation: judgments of qualifications written by external experts and the applicants’ documentation in their applications.

- Abstract
This study aimed to identify the perceptions of job applicants about the personnel selection process. It was a descriptive exploratory qualitative study made up of a semi-structured interview which aimed to obtain better opening and depth considering issues that might ensue. Seven graduates of over 22 years old who have previously been in any kind of selection process took part in the study. Another relevant criterion for the research was that the participants should be unemployed. As a result, the personnel selection process is not only considered a stage to be fulfilled, but it is a way to acquire experience, to learn to behave in future selections and to learn about other people’s experiences even though having similar goals to other participants. The selection process was also positive in order to help the people to know themselves better, being considered as a source of professional and personal learning which doesn’t have negative consequences in the person’s life. Another factor was that the choice of companies where they deserve to work is based on salary, benefits, career plan and references from people who have already worked in that company. Although the personnel selection process was positive, the approval or failure in the selection was considered as necessary and indispensable information to be forwarded to the participants by the companies in which they were candidates., Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar as percepções de candidatos a vagas de emprego sobre o processo de seleção de pessoal. A pesquisa teve caráter descritivo exploratório de cunho qualitativo e foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas, com o intuito de obter maior abertura e profundidade para questões que pudessem surgir. Participaram sete pessoas que haviam passado por algum processo seletivo para cargos de nível não operacional, com idade acima de 22 anos, e que estavam cursando ensino superior ou já o tivessem concluído, outro critério de inclusão relevante para a pesquisa foi que no momento da coleta de dados os participantes deveriam estar desempregados. O processo seletivo foi considerado uma maneira de se adquirir experiência e de saber se portar em outras seleções.Ainda, foi tido como uma maneira do participante se conhecer melhor, sendo considerado como uma fonte de aprendizado tanto profissional quanto pessoal, tendo consequências positivas e negativas na vida do indivíduo. No entanto, o retorno sobre o resultado da aprovação ou não do candidato foi tido como uma informação necessária e indispensável a ser repassada aos participantes pela empresa.
