The position is a one-year post doc, with the option for a second year, in the field of macro-labor. The post doc will work together with Professor Johanna Wallenius (and potential co-authors) on a project on life cycle labor supply.

Much of the project is quantitative in nature, so good computational skills are an asset. The objective is to co-author high quality journal articles. There is no teaching associated with the position.
The position starts September 1, 2022.
Salary: 40 000 SEK per month (before tax).
Qualified candidates should have completed a doctoral degree or equivalent by the start of the position.
To be considered for the position, candidates must submit: CV, job market paper and 3 letters of recommendation via econjobmarket.org. The deadline for submitting applications is February 15, 2022 (review and selection of applications may start earlier).
