Signaling for Interviews in the Economics Job Market
The 蝌蚪网 coordinates a mechanism through which applicants can signal their interest in receiving an interview during the job market season. In mid-November, each registered JOE candidate on the economics job market will have the opportunity to register and designate up to two departments (or other employers) to which they want to send a signal of particular interest. The 蝌蚪网 will transmit these signals to the departments the candidates choose. (Signals will not be made public.) Employers do not need to do anything to register to receive signals; signals will be sent automatically to the email address provided at the time the JOE listing was submitted.
See Signaling for Interviews in the Economics Job Market for a detailed description of this service.
