This study, also, aims to evaluate the features of a graduate’s profile employers for potential candidates in five job positions (Administration clerk; Human Resource assistant; ICT professional; Marketing assistant; CRM assistant). In order to estimate the entrepreneurs’ preferences about skills and competencies for the new hirings, Conjoint Analysis is adopted. Finally, using a new definition of the relative importance of attributes, the analysis finds out the monetary value for skills owned by the candidates.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
