“…This can probably explain why more than half of the respondents have non-academic work experience. Research drawing upon CV data might offer a better way to measure the extent and depth of work experiences and could also better measure the importance of non-academic work experience at different stages of a career path (Canibano & Bozeman, 2009;Geuna et al, 2015). Likewise, we use self-reported data on experiences with interaction with external stakeholders, and have not asked for details about duration or intensity of interactions and partnerships.…”

We ask whether academic employees with non-academic work experience differ from their colleagues with respect to interaction with external stakeholders and research performance. We use a science and technical human capital perspective and address the question through an analysis of 4,400 survey responses from academic employees in Norwegian universities and colleges. Non-academic work experience is common in all academic fields; it characterises more than half of the tenured academic staff members in Norway. Our analysis indicates that, in general, external interaction is positively influenced by non-academic work experience, in line with prior research. Contrary to expectations, we find few signs of a trade-off or a "punishment" effect of non-academic work experience on scientific productivity. Non-academic work experience is neither significantly related to publication productivity nor share of publications in highly ranked journals, but there are important differences based on the type of previous work experience.

“…The BBSRC survey consisted of nine rounds, from September 2011 to January 2014, resulting in 296 (12.2%) complete CVs. The, using the SiSOB tool (Geuna et al, 2015) we directly crawled the web for researchers' CVs. This process resulted in 13 additional correctly identified CVs.…”

“…The use of CVs in research has become more and more prevalent since the 1990s, although its growth is still hampered by the availability of CVs and, moreover, the lack of tools to automate their analysis (Geuna et al, 2015). Cañibano and Bozeman (2009) point out that the use of this unique data source is primarily found in the research evaluation sphere where its use has shifted over time from a focus on output (in terms of publication) based on specific inputs (e.g.…”

“…This approach has proved to be time-consuming and has involved formal hurdles as well as the practical challenges of compiling the datasets, especially the CV data. However, data-extraction tools are continuously improving (see Geuna et al, 2015). This is taking analysis in a direction where the challenges of extracting and coding data from CVs will be reduced.…”
