EHL's dynamic campuses form a unique network where passionate students, academics and industry experts from over 120 countries come together with a common goal: to develop and disseminate hospitality knowledge, while supporting the sector's continued growth.

We are constantly striving to improve the working environment and personal development opportunities for our more than 500 staff and teachers, who are among the most recognized experts in their respective fields. Since its foundation in 1893, EHL has been widely recognized by the industry and consistently ranked among the world's top hospitality management schools. Everything we do is based on our values of excellence, family and learning, and we are committed to bringing them to life in tangible ways for our employees.

To join our amazing team, we are looking for a candidate who is not only skilled and passionate about empowering growth by nurturing excellence in human experiences but also aligns with our leadership principles: transparency, accountability, collaboration, care, and experimentation.

As a Research Assistant, you will work with Sébastien Fernandez (EHL) and Nicolas Roulin (Saint Mary’s university) to carry out a SNF research project successfully from the beginning till the end. You will bring your curiosity and interest for the research topic which is at the crossroads of several domains and disciplines (vocational behavior, differential psychology, work psychology). You will help in finding participants, collect and analyze the data, contribute to the writing and dissemination of the knowledge gained from the study.

The research project is funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF), and aims to investigate how professional social media can benefit both job seekers and hiring organizations. The project aims at answering the following questions:

  1. RQ1: What personality traits, skills, and abilities impact how young adults use professional social media?
  2. RQ2: How do they relate to indicators found on LinkedIn? Why do professional social media convey valid information about job seekers?
  3. RQ3: How beneficial is it for job seekers to use professional social media as part of their job search?
  4. RQ4: Can we train raters to assess LinkedIn profiles more accurately?
  5. RQ5: What is the convergent validity and criterion-related validity of LinkedIn-based assessments?

  • Support administrative tasks for EHL or for the SNSF when needed (e.g., financial reporting).
  • Ensuring compliance with SNSF guidelines and submitted application.
  • Assist in the development of the material for research.
