Job-Matching Function Analysis Using Social Network Analysis

This paper proposes a job matching function that calculates the job matching probability of a job-seeker to an employer taking the working conditions of a job-seeker and an employer into account. In addition, this study analysis the degree of centrality that means interactions of a job-seeker and an employer utilizing social network analysis. The results are follows. First, a degree of centrality is found to be severely concentrated in certain job-seekers or certain employers; in addition, there are many job-seekers and employers who have no matching results. Second, according to decision tree analysis, characteristics of a job-seeker that influences the degree of centrality are gender, age and degree of education in order of importance. The characteristics of a employer that influences the degree of centrality are proposed salary, industry classification and firm size in order of importance.

A Comparative Study on Spatial Lattice Data Analysis - A Case Where Outlier Exists -

Recently, researchers of the various fields where the spatial analysis is needed have more interested in spatial statistics. In case of data with spatial correlation, methodologies accounting for the correlation are required and there have been developments in methods for spatial data analysis. Lattice data among spatial data is analyzed with following three procedures: (1) definition of the spatial neighborhood, (2) definition of spatial weight, and (3) the analysis using spatial models. The present paper shows a spatial statistical analysis method superior to a general statistical method in aspect estimation by using the trimmed mean squared error statistic, when we analysis the spatial lattice data that outliers are included. To show validation and usefulness of contents in this paper, we perform a small simulation study and show an empirical example with a criminal data in BusanJin-Gu, Korea.
