Files

The following files are provided in this repository.

job-search-backstories.csv
A collection of job search queries, links to associated job advertisements and backstories written for the particular query and job ad combination. The file contains the following data on each line, separated by comas. Strings may be enclosed by double quotes if they contain comas.

  • query refers to a job search query submitted to the job search platform
  • job_url contains the URL to the job advertisement associated with the search query in the crowdsourcing experiment. Note: The URL is publicly accessible information. Hoewever, the job advertisements themselves are expired and not publicly accessible. Thus, no sensitive or proprietary information is revealed. This content is part of the data for reproducibility reasons.
  • backstory contains a backstory that was written by a crowdsourcing worker for the combination of query and job advertisement.
