ILR is a relatively narrow and specialized field of interest, so you want to show high IQ or personal EQ to what got you interested in work, labor, and employment. There's the broader philosophical laments of how we've as a species made our lives more miserable accepting the social contract of modernity/work, and there's the more future-technical side of the nature of work evolving with COVID and remote work and technology. There's future ethical questions about work, and economic/political dilemmas about work (ie Should we ban AI truck driving to save the truck driving industry? What will become of the ~3.5mill truck drivers if we replaced them? Maybe your dad is a truck driver, hence the personal EQ connection to this topic). You should be showing me a high IQ/EQ curiosity and interest in the certain aspect of labor studies that then you see Cornell's ILR department will teach you and prepare you professionally to contribute to. Find a topic that is high IQ/personal EQ to this effect, show that you want to understand and advocate for the future of this issue, and explain how you've done your research on what Cornell IRL offers that assures you that you can realize your academic and professional goals through 'em.
Thanks so much! Any specific recommendations on Cornell ILR, other than the general “fit” you mentioned in the other video?
