Twitter endorsements
Why others say your department should invite me for a skype-out ☎️
On 13 October, I let my twitter network know that I will be on the job market this year. Unprompted, some prominent academic colleagues took the initiative to write short endorsements. Below, I will give a selected overview of some of these endorsements. This way, you do not have to rely on my word alone when deciding to invite me for a skype-out or zoom-inar.

As it's not the best time to be on the market, a thread on who I am and why your department should invite me for a skype-out and not miss the opportunity to hire me! pic.twitter.com/Z8Xbfly4oA
Colin is the Robert Kirby Professor of Behavioral Economics at Caltech, and a pioneer in behavioral economics and in neuroeconomics. We collaborated on the paper Standing United or Falling Divided? High Stakes Bargaining in a TV Game Show , in which we used data from the British TV game show Divided to study bargaining behavior. This collaboration was special to me, as Colin’s book Behavioral Game Theory had played a major role in my decision to switch from sociology to economics.
Very talented person...and a great coauthor https://t.co/G1oIS0aAdq
