Interviewer instructions
Only for the occupied
Attention: This group of questions only will be completed with the people of the household in which the Question 66 is different than "0" (that is to say he/she has at least one job).
L.2 Principal occupation
All the questions of this section are referring to the principal occupation of the person interviewed, that is to say it must correspond with the answers given to the questions of the section 4.2; because of this pay attention to the agreement of the answers (for example: Branch of activity of the principal occupation and unionization of the person).
MT16. How did you obtain your current job?
This intends to know the way in which the people obtain their job and proposes a list of options. The question doesn't refer to how the person found out about the existence of an opening but rather the fundamental mechanism that permitted him to obtain it. For example: if a friend told him/her that he had seen an announcement in the paper and because of this he/she showed up in the place mentioned in the announcement, the option "Via the press" should be circled; if a friend recommends him to go to speak with the owner of a bowling alley, the option 3 "Via friends or family" should be circled; if he/she showed up in the bowling alley to speak with the owner and offered his/her abilities for the job, the option 7 "Via a direct consultation with the employers" should be circled.
