当雇主明确的性别要求在一夜之间被意外地从中国的一个招聘网站上删除时,成功申请者的群体变得更加一体化:女性(男性)对要求男性(女性)的职位的回复比例上升了61%(146%)。从这个意义上说,删除“起了作用”,因为它导致性别不匹配的申请大量增加,而且这些申请受到雇主的对待令人惊讶,这表明雇主的性别要求往往代表着相对薄弱的偏好或过时的陈规定型观念。然而,禁令所纳入的职称并不是性别最多的职称,而且是工资不成比例地低的工作。(JEL J16、J23、J41、J63、J71、M51、P31)
When employers' explicit gender requests were unexpectedly removed from a Chinese job board overnight, pools of successful applicants became more integrated: women's (men's) share of callbacks to jobs that had requested men (women) rose by 61 (146) percent. The removal “worked” in this sense because it generated a large increase in gender-mismatched applications, and because those applications were treated surprisingly well by employers, suggesting that employers' gender requests often represented relatively weak preferences or outdated stereotypes. The job titles that were integrated by the ban, however, were not the most gendered ones, and were disproportionately lower-wage jobs. (JEL J16, J23, J41, J63, J71, M51, P31)
