Who Gets Hired in the Age of AI? The Economics of Hiring—and How Students Can Compete
College of Social & Behavioral Science
Hiring is an economic problem: employers cannot observe what candidates can actually do, so they rely on signals—degrees, résumés, referrals, and interviews.

Can dialogue be understood as a distinct form of dispute prevention, resolution, management, or transformation? Are dialogues and their related concepts and practices, such as difficult conversations or civil disagreements, effective ways to handle conflict? Under what circumstances are they an appropriate process to address disagreements? How should dialogues be structured to promote understanding, more constructive disagreement, or meaningful conversations? How to apply dialogue principles to create broader social change rather than just individual transformation? Is dialogue normatively desirable in the face of power imbalances, deep polarization, or intractable conflicts? What practical initiatives and community interventions can shed light on the use of dialogues to dee…
