Abstract
There is a growing body of research that leverages online social networks to study users’ interests and behaviors for reasons such as personalization and recommendation. However, the utility of online social platforms in understanding and predicting the labor market has not received the attention that it deserves in the literature. Therefore, this Ph.D. research will explore the temporal and causal relationships between online social topics and the changes in the job market from several complementary aspects. More specifically, this research will be focused on addressing three main problems: (1) investigating whether social content is an effective indicator of future job requirements; (2) analyzing if any meaningful causal relationship could be found between work-related emotions expressed on online social platforms and their social demographics; and, (3) identifying potential causal impacts of community support on the online users’ well-being in the future job market. The findings of my doctoral dissertation will assist learners and job seekers to gain insight into important job-related skill trends, which can help them in their career-long learning process to stay in demand and remain employable. Also, the outcomes of this thesis can help governments and policymakers understand workforce challenges and design programs and solutions that can support workers in the knowledge economy and enhance their well-being.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
