As of this year, the European Job Market for Economists offers you the possibility to send up to 10 signals to recruiters. We understand that this new feature may be confusing and require more explanation.

Therefore, we invite candidates & recruiters to a short presentation with Q&A on Thursday, November 21 at 13:00 CET. David will explain the signalling mechanism to you, provide you with possible strategies to approach the choice of receivers and ask any of your questions.
