Signaling for Interviews in the Economics Job Market

The AEA has introduced a mechanism through which applicants can signal their interest in receiving an interview at the January meetings. From November 18, until December 1, shortly after the December JOE comes out, each applicant on the economics job market can register and designate no more than two departments (or other employers) to whom to send a signal of particular interest. On December 3, the AEA will transmit these signals to the departments a candidate has chosen. (Signals will not be made public.)

Please see Signaling for Interviews in the Economics Job Market for a detailed description as well as the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
