OVERVIEW

Harvard University’s Opportunity Insights (OI), is seeking applicants for a Postdoctoral Fellow to work on projects with co-Directors Raj Chetty, John Friedman, Nathan Hendren, and other Research Principals. Appointment to begin July 1, 2025, renewable for a second year based on mutual agreement.

OI is a nonpartisan research and policy institute focused on improving economic opportunity. Founded in 2018, OI has become a nationally and internationally recognized leader in the science of economic mobility and in the use of large administrative data to understand and address inequality. OI has published seminal work on national trends in upward mobility; racial disparities; the role of neighborhoods, social capital, and higher education in upward mobility; and the use of private-sector data to understand disparate impacts in the recent economic recession and recovery. Much of the team’s ongoing research uses quasi-experimental methods to identify causal effects and test the predictions of economic and sociological models. Examples of current research projects include: long-term impacts of neighborhoods and place-based policies, the role of colleges in upward mobility, using big data to address health disparities, and measuring how social networks affect mobility. OI’s work has shaped policy discussions at the national and local level, with nearly a dozen of its studies covered on the front pages of major media outlets, such as the New York Times, The Economist, The Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal, and have been widely cited in policy discussions.

The Postdoctoral Fellow will work closely with OI co-Directors and other Research Principals. Fellows will be invited to work on both OI work as well as have time for their own complementary research.

We invite applications from candidates with a background in applied microeconomic research who would be eager to focus their efforts coauthoring projects with us studying economic opportunity and the determinants of upward mobility in the US. Applicants are expected to have strong analytical skills and also work well in team settings.

We especially encourage applications from backgrounds under-represented in economics. The position is fully funded with no teaching requirements. The salary and benefits are competitive with other top postdoctoral positions in economics.

The position reports directly to Raj Chetty, Nathaniel Hendren, and John Friedman and is located in Cambridge, MA.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

The successful candidate is expected to have finished a Ph.D. in Economics or related fields by the start date, as noted above.

COMMITMENT TO EQUITY, DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, AND BELONGING

Harvard University views equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging as the pathway to achieving inclusive excellence and fostering a campus culture where everyone can thrive. We strive to create a community that draws upon the widest possible pool of talent to unify excellence and diversity while fully embracing individuals from varied backgrounds, cultures, races, identities, life experiences, perspectives, beliefs, and values.

HOW TO APPLY

Applicants are required to submit a CV, cover letter (letter of interest), up to three research papers, and the names and contact information of three references through the Harvard application portal. Note: All recommendation letters should be from experts at the ladder faculty ranks; it may be appropriate to include highly accomplished senior researchers from corporations or research institutes. The application is complete only when three letters have been submitted.

We encourage candidates to apply by December 19, 2024, but will continue to review applications until the position is filled.

If you have a competing offer and require expedited review or have questions about the application process in general, please contact us at hiring@opportunityinsights.org.

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, creed, national origin, ancestry, age, protected veteran status, disability, genetic information, military service, pregnancy and pregnancy-related conditions, or other protected status.

We are looking for an enthusiastic colleague who holds, or is close to completing, a PhD in economics or econometrics, with a focus on modeling the interactions between supply and demand factors relevant to the housing market. You will work with granular mortgage and house price data to assess the effects of housing market policies on households.

You proactively engage in dialogue with policy makers and fellow researchers inside and outside DNB to achieve synergy between research and policy. You spend 50% of your time on academic research and 50% on policy work.

What exactly does your job involve?

  • Conducting impactful, policy-oriented economic research on the development of the housing market, either theoretical or empirical, with a focus on government plans and their impact on prices and supply of houses.
  • Analyzing microdata on housing and mortgages, that eventually feed into a model able to assess the effectiveness of housing policies.
  • Contributing to the development of a microsimulation model for the household sector, where housing and the financing of the actors playing a role on this market is key.
  • Translating your results in policy notes and articles for scientific journals.

This is where you will be working

The Economic Policy & Research Division at DNB is responsible for a broad range of topics, including domestic economic policies, business cycle analysis and monetary policy. The Division consists of around 70 staff members split into 5 departments. We work in an informal, academic atmosphere with ample room for personal development. We encourage you to participate in scientific conferences and research networks and we offer plenty of training facilities.

This is what we need from you

You have sound analytical research skills and knowledge of housing market policies. You are able to explain research results in an accessible way and translate them into clear policy recommendations. You are enthusiastic and thrive on having an actual impact on economic policy making. You enjoy working together with internal and external parties, and you are able to support the synergy between research and policy. You look forward to investing in knowledge as well as professional skills by taking targeted training courses.

What other characteristics are we looking for?

  • A PhD (or close to completing a PhD) in microeconomics or econometrics.
  • Strong affinity with and sound empirical or theoretical knowledge of the housing market, and how it interacts with government policies.
  • Experience in applied economic research is highly valued; experience with microdata related to the housing and mortgage markets is a plus, and so is the knowledge of the Dutch housing market in particular.
  • Excellent presentation and communication skills.
  • Proficiency in written and oral English, with a willingness to learn Dutch.

ECONOMIST / Sr. ECONOMIST JOB DESCRIPTION

About CEGIS

Centre for Effective Governance of Indian States (CEGIS – pronounced See-Jis) aims to improve lives by helping Indian state governments deliver better development outcomes.

Informed by cutting-edge research and evidence as well as a practical orientation toward implementable ideas, CEGIS works with State Governments in India to enable a transformative improvement in their functioning. The vision and Theory of Change (ToC) reflects extensive research done by Prof. Karthik Muralidharan (CEGIS Co-Founder and Scientific Director) and strategic philanthropic support provided by Mr. Ashish Dhawan (CEGIS Co-Founder).

Prof. Karthik Muralidharan is the Tata Chancellor’s Professor of Economics at the University of California, San Diego. Based on over two decades of research and policy engagement, his book, Accelerating India’s Development: A State-Led Roadmap for Effective Governance, systematically analyses India’s governance challenges and provides actionable, evidence-based strategies, emphasizing state-level reforms as critical for India’s advancement.

Ashish Dhawan is a leading Indian philanthropist and the Founder-CEO of The Convergence Foundation (TCF). He is also the Founding Chairperson of Ashoka University and the Central Square Foundation, and is a governing board member of the Gates Foundation. Before his second career as a philanthropist, Ashish was among India’s most successful private equity investors.

CEGIS Approach and Model of Functioning

Our solutions to enhance governance are co-created with state governments in a “state-led” way, where we focus on deep partnerships with states with an iterative cycle of “think-demonstrate-document-transfer”. We work closely with the top bureaucratic leadership, front-line workers and public officials in Finance, Planning, Human Resources and a few other priority line departments.

In alignment with our four principles or pillars of change - outcome measurement, personnel management, strategic public finance, states and markets, CEGIS is currently working with the governments of Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, NCT of Delhi, Assam, and a few Government of India entities like the NITI Aayog and Capacity Building Commission (CBC) across a range of projects and sectors. Many of our solutions reflect ideas outlined in Prof. Muralidharan’s book, and these solutions are constantly being refined based on real-time feedback and are designed to both be customized to the contexts we are working in, and to create templates that can provide the starting point for replication across contexts.

To further explore the mission of CEGIS and the impact we hope to have, please take a look at this video of our CEO, Dr Vijay Pingale.

The Position: Economist/Sr. Economist

As the demand for CEGIS’s offerings is growing, we are looking to hire multiple Ph.D. holding economists to join the “Economics and Statistics Unit” (ESU) at CEGIS to conduct economic analysis focused on state-level policy issues in India. In this pivotal role, you will be at the forefront of driving analytical work and conducting impactful research on policies and programmes that can boost the effectiveness of thousands of crores of public spending, and thereby improve the translation of public expenditure into development outcomes for millions of people.

  • Engage with a range of stakeholders, including government officials, researchers, and think-tanks, to foster effective policy dialogues and knowledge sharing across Indian states, and beyond.
  • Support CEGIS teams and projects in developing and implementing evidence-based policy solutions, providing critical economic insights and analyses.
  • Translate economic research findings into practical policy ideas and reforms that can be presented to state governments for consideration.

o Knowledge Creation and Dissemination

The IGIER Research Center at Bocconi University invites applications for a 12-month Research Grant related to the “MARKINDOWN - Monopsony Power and Inequality” ERC project.

Research Project:

MARKINDOWN is a multi-year project aiming at investigating the role played by monopsony (monopoly power in the demand for labor) in widening earning inequalities. Recent studies documented the pervasiveness of monopsony power in modern labor markets. Monopsonistic employers can cut wages without losing workers to competitors, pay labor below its productivity and hire fewer workers than in a competitive labor market. The resulting equilibrium is inefficient insofar as it reduces the size of the labor market.Moreover, workers tend to be exposed to excessive work injury risk. Monopsony contributes to explain declining labor shares of income, persistently high levels of workplace accidents, and limited disemployment effects of minimum wages. Much less is known about the role of monopsony in increasing earning inequality. This project aims at filling this gap by i) contributing to a better understanding of the sources of monopsony power and ii) assessing their relevance across different socio-economic groups.

Monopsony power can be due to anticompetitive arrangements introduced often in a non-transparent way in labor contracts. Another source of monopsony power is lack of information on alternative job opportunities. Frictions in the matching of workers and vacancies may discourage risk averse workers when planning to quit the firm after wage cuts. Spatial mismatch in the allocation of jobs and quitters may increase monopsony power vis-à-vis workers having a stronger distaste for commuting. Some groups of workers may also have stronger cognitive biases when interpreting available information on outside opportunities.

The MARKINDOWN project will i) assess the incidence of anticompetitive arrangements in Europe, ii) estimate firm-level labor supply elasticities across different categories of workers, and iii) using survey and experimental methods, evaluate to what extent the heterogeneity among socio-economic groups of willingness to quit a low-paid job is related to lack of information or cognitive biases.

Job Description:

The candidate will be directly involved in different phases of the PI's research project on the topic of monopsonistic power and its implications for income inequalities and will carry out his own research activity on these topics.

The profile is that of a young researcher who is about to obtain or has obtained a doctorate in economics, particularly interested in the fields of the labor market, labour supply elasticity estimates, no-compete clauses in employment contracts, social protection, and industrial relations, with solid foundations in empirical methodologies and data analysis. Prior experience in survey design and implementation as well as in the delivery of information experiments is highly valued, although not mandatory.

If you are interested, please apply here by 19th January 2025.

Are you passionate about pioneering research on economic behavior and inequality? CEBI at the University of Copenhagen invites ambitious candidates to join our PhD programme, starting 1 September 2025.

As a PhD Fellow at CEBI, you will be part of a leading research community, tackling some of today’s most urgent questions about economic inequality: What drives disparities in income, health, and opportunity across societies? How do policy interventions reshape economic and social outcomes? And what role do behavioral factors play in sustaining or reducing inequality?

With access to Denmark’s globally unique data resources, you’ll explore these issues in depth, combining insights from Public Economics, Labor and Health Economics, Behavioral Economics, and more. Supported by the Danish National Research Foundation, CEBI merges administrative data with behavioral experiments and surveys to offer an unmatched empirical foundation for your research. This is more than a PhD — it is a chance to work with world-class mentors on questions that matter, using advanced methodologies to make a meaningful impact.

CEBI is looking for one or more excellent new PhD Fellows who have competencies in these fields, and are interested in doing empirical research on economic behaviour and inequality. The current group includes 13 senior researchers, 8 junior researchers, 16 PhD students, 8 research assistants and 9 international researchers from Harvard University, UC Berkeley, New York University, Princeton University and University of Zürich.

For further information about CEBI see: www.econ.ku.dk/cebi.

The Department of Economics and CEBI is pleased to announce openings of a fully-funded PhD scholarship as part of the research project “The Role of Preferences and Beliefs in Shaping Physician Careers”. This project is funded by the Independent Research Fund Denmark.

You will be involved in research centered at the high-skilled labor market for physicians. Health care sectors across the world are challenged by physician shortages to match increasing demands for care. Failure to recruit and retain a diverse group of physicians in health care can be catastrophic for public health and individual patients. It can further increase inequality in access to health care, extend waiting lists unnecessarily, and keep talents of different genders and backgrounds from pursuing a medical research career within the profession. Our hypothesis is that individual physicians’ preferences, circumstances, and beliefs determine career aspirations, their realized career and family outcomes. We ask two overarching questions: 1) How are physician beliefs about career and family trade-offs shaped over the life-cycle? 2) How do preferences, circumstances and beliefs impact aspirations and realized outcomes? Using survey experiments linked at the individual level to data from administrative sources, including a randomized lottery that determines physicians’ first jobs, we will disentangle how different mechanisms causally shape physician preferences, beliefs and careers.

Join the project and collaborate with Torben Heien Nielsen (Professor at the Department of Economics) and Frederik Plesner Lyngse (Assistant Professor of Health Economics at the Department of Public Health). Successful candidates will not only work closely with senior researchers but also have the chance to pursue independent research. We therefore invite you to include a description of a potential independent research project in your application. Your description should articulate and justify a research question, as well as discuss data sources and empirical designs to address it.

2/3 of the scholarship is funded by the specific project “The Role of Preferences and Beliefs in Shaping Physician Careers”. The remaining 1/3 is funded by CEBI.

As a PhD Fellow you will be affiliated with Center for Economic Behavior and inequality, CEBI, a center of Excellence funded by the Danish National Research Foundation. The main goal of CEBI is to provide cutting-edge empirical research on the role of behavior in generating inequality and its underlying sources. CEBI combines several fields and methods: Public Economics, Labor Economics, Health Economics, Behavioral Economics, Household Finance, Political Economics, Microeconometrics, Experimental and Survey Methods and Structural Modelling. The current group includes 14 senior researchers, 11 junior researchers, 12 PhD students, 7 research assistants and 7 international researchers from New York University, Pompeu Fabra University, Princeton University and University of Zürich.
