Abstract

To address the labour market which is a priori indefinite, firms, workers and intermediaries need "investment in forms". Drawing on such a conventionalist approach, the article analyses the hiring channels used by firms in service-oriented sectors. Two questions are relevant: 1/ Do channels serve labour markets already established or do they shape the labour supply that employers are seeking? 2/ Do channels convey information in standard or personalised format? The way the channel shapes the selection depends on the ways the labour market is defined and the workforce is described.
