| Tiivistelmä: | Using unique data from a large retail bank, the authors investigate the theoretical mechanisms by which preexisting social ties affect the hiring process. By focusing on a single, large employer, they are able to identify the recruitment practices and hiring criteria used during screening for entry-level positions. This method allows the authors to assemble data fro the pool of candidates at multiple phases of the hiring process and to conduct empirical tests of the various roles that personal contacts might play at each stage. |
