Research
My research focuses on labour economics and policy evaluation, with both behavioural and empirical approaches. I am particularly interested in jobseekers’ decision process. I study how the probability to find a job depends on the information jobseekers have. The aim is to determine whether provision of additional information about the jobs or training programs can lessen behavioural and practical obstacles they face.
