    I hope everyone saw the announcement and video about this year's Michael Driver Best Symposium Award that I posted last week (if not, see it HERE).

    Now, it's time to focus on our second award: the Arnon Reichers Best Student Paper Award. Our program chair selected three nominees based on reviewer ratings of all eligible paper submissions for this award. Then, a committee consisting of expert Careers Division members decided on a winner based on a predefined set of criteria related to, among others, novelty, rigor, and contributions to the field. Our committee members for this award were: Simon Restubog (chair), Mila LazarovaStefanie Gustafsson, and Martin Obschonka.

    The nominated papers were:

    What do we want now or later? Work-family decisions in a dual-earner context.
    Author: Elisabeth Abraham (KU Leuven, Belgium)

    How to minimize job insecurity during the COVID-19 pandemic?
    Authors: Judith Langerak, Jessie Koen, and Edwin A.J. Van Hooft (all University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands)

    Gender differences in the use of social contacts in the job search process.
    Author:
    Kira Choi (London Business School, UK)

    The winner(s) of the 2021 Arnon Reichers Best Student Paper Award is............

    KIRA CHOI with her paper titled "GENDER DIFFERENCES IN THE USE OF SOCIAL CONTACTS IN THE JOB SEARCH PROCESS."

    Congratulations on winning this award, Kira! And, of course, also congratulations to the finalists for this award. Feel free to add your congratulations as a reply to this message.
