Data collection interrupted

Description

Doctoral researcher Federica Previtali’s data collection was interrupted by the coronavirus situation, and she now faces an uncertain future.

Previtali, an Italian working on her PhD thesis at the Tampere University, is researching workplace ageism and was supposed to receive videos of job interviews from a Milan-based recruitment company, to be added to her research data.

When business ground to a halt in Italy, recruitment stopped as well.
