Li, @lindseyraymond.bsky.social & @peterbergman.bsky.social show that incorporating exploration into an interview screening algorithm improves demographic diversity & hiring efficiency, while traditional supervised learning-only tools improve hiring rates at the expense of minority applicants.

My colleagues at @iabnews.bsky.social have examined why gig jobs are often so unstable. The analysis is based on amazing data: a representative survey among gig workers identified in admin data.
Im IAB-Forum analysieren wir, warum Gig-Work bei Lieferdienst-Plattformen meist kurzlebig ist. Die Beschäftigten kündigen häufig selbst, weil sie die Arbeitsbedingungen unangenehm und die Entlohnung gering finden. Datengrundlage ist eine repräsentative Befragung. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdhu...
Warum ist Gig-Work so kurzlebig?
