Abstract
In a randomized field experiment, we provide personalized suggestions about suitable alternative occupations to long-term unemployed job seekers in the UK. The suggestions are automatically generated, integrated in an online job search platform, and fed into actual search queries. Effects on the primary pre-registered outcomes of “finding a stable job” and “reaching a cumulative earnings threshold” are positive, are significant among those who searched at least once, 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.
Nature of Intervention
The intervention involved integrating automated personalized advice into a job search engine to suggest alternative occupations for long-term unemployed individuals in order to enhance their job search effectiveness and facilitate reintegration into the labor market.
