The PhD fellowship is offered in the context of a project supported by the Carlsberg Foundation on analysing employer descriptions in job ads led by Pia Ingold and co-led by Isabelle Augenstein. The project team will further include one postdoctoral researcher (to be hired at the Department of Psychology) as well as external partners. The project will comprise studies using methods from experimental psychology, as well as analyses of two existing big datasets on job ads (one in Danish, one in German) using Natural Language Processing. The role of the PhD student to be recruited in this call will be to research Natural Language Processing methods, which can be used to understand what influences the employer descriptions that organisations project in job ads.
