DESCRIPTION:Dilan Eren\n\nBoston University\n\nLabor Market Imprinting\, Op
 en-Access\, and Inclusion: Entering the Tech Labor Market without a Comput
 er Science Degree\n\nDate: Thursday November 30\, 2023\n	Time: 10:30 AM -12
 :00 PM\n	Location: Bronfman Building\, Room 301\n\nAbstract:\n\nAlternative
  skilling resources—such as open-access coding initiatives—promise more de
 mocratized access to professional careers\, previously closed via credenti
 alism. Less clear is their capacity to alter labor market inequalities and
  make professional jobs more diverse and inclusive. While past scholarship
  highlights the demand-side related factors to assess the efficacy of such
  interventions\, what is missing is the impact of supply-side responses. R
 elying on multiple interviews conducted with 74 aspiring developers and di
 gital ethnographic observations\, I show that imprints from previous labor
  market encounters differently shape how job-seeking aspirants make sense 
 of the open-access tech labor market and the strategies they adopt to navi
 gate it. The two distinct job-seeking strategies that I found were pattern
 ed along existing social inequalities and generated stratified pathways: T
 hose who have been marginalized in the labor market before adopted the str
 ategy that delayed their entry into the labor market and led them to targe
 t a limited variety of jobs. The findings of this study are striking becau
 se they reveal a neglected mechanism that perpetuates the lack of diversit
 y in professional jobs: imprints from previous labor market encounters and
  the stratified pathways they generate for individual aspirants to enter t
 he talent pool. I discuss the implications of these findings for organizat
 ions to make their workforce more diverse and inclusive.\n
