Julia L. Melin
I am an Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College.
As an organizational theorist and economic sociologist, my expertise is in the areas of gender, career transitions, and labor market inequality. In my work, I use mixed-methods, online experiments, and large-scale digital interventions in real-world settings (including Fortune 500 companies and online career training platforms) to examine (1) how perceptions of gender influence organizational practices, including hiring and talent assessment and (2) how organizational practices can be designed to reduce gender inequality and improve women’s organizational advancement.
My research has been published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Current Opinion in Psychology, and Social Psychology Quarterly, and has received awards from the American Sociological Association, Phi Beta Kappa of Northern California, and NSF-funded Time-sharing Experiments for the Social Sciences (TESS).
Prior to pursuing my Ph.D. at Stanford, I worked as an analyst at Goldman Sachs and for Hired, an online tech recruiting startup in New York City. I have also conducted policy research for the U.S. Military as an adjunct researcher at the RAND Corporation. I received my B.A. from Swarthmore College.
