matching – Suchprozesse am Arbeitsmarkt
Offene Stellen bei gleichzeitiger Arbeitslosigkeit - was Arbeitsmarkttheorien u. a. mit "unvollkommener Information" begründen, ist für Unternehmen und Arbeitsuchende oft nur schwer nachzuvollziehen: Unternehmen können freie Stellen nicht besetzen, trotzdem finden Arbeitsuchende nur schwer den passenden Job. Wie gestalten sich die Suchprozesse bei Unternehmen und Arbeitsuchenden, welche Konzessionen sind beide Seiten bereit einzugehen, wie lässt sich das "matching" verbessern?
Diese Infoplattform bietet wissenschaftliche Literatur zur theoretischen und empirischen Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema.

Making the invisible hand visible: Managers and the allocation of workers to jobs (2023)

Minni, Virginia (2023): Making the invisible hand visible: Managers and the allocation of workers to jobs. (CEP discussion paper / Centre for Economic Performance 1948), London, 80 S.
Abstract
"Why do managers matter for firm performance? This paper provides evidence of the critical role of managers in matching workers to jobs within the firm using the universe of personnel records from a large multinational firm. The data covers 200,000 white-collar workers and 30,000 managers over 10 years in 100 countries. I identify good managers as the top 30% by their speed of promotion and leverage exogenous variation induced by the rotation of managers across teams. I find that good managers cause workers to reallocate within the firm through lateral and vertical transfers. This leads to large and persistent gains in workers' career progression and productivity. Seven years after the manager transition, workers earn 30% more and perform better on objective performance measures. In terms of aggregate firm productivity, doubling the share of good managers would increase output per worker by 61% at the establishment level. My results imply that the visible hands of managers match workers' specific skills to specialized jobs, leading to an improvement in the productivity of existing workers that outlasts the managers' time at the firm."

Labour market tightness and matching efficiency in different labour market segments – do differences in education and occupation matter? (2023)

Obadić, Alka & Viktor Viljevac (2023): Labour market tightness and matching efficiency in different labour market segments – do differences in education and occupation matter? (EFZG working paper series 2303), Zagreb, 47 S.
Abstract
"This paper analyses the existing educational and occupational structures of several EU member countries and their alignment with the needs of the labour market. Such a situation may indicate a structural mismatch in labour market in which the mismatch between the skills taught in schools and universities and the skills needed in the workplace appears. To evaluate this mismatch, the paper investigates the matching needs of employers and unemployed job seekers by disaggregating the registered employment office data by education and occupation groups in selected EU countries separately. More educated workers, as well as workers in more complex and better-paid occupations, might fare better when it comes to the aggregate labour market trends. For example, economic downturns and increases in unemployment might be felt more heavily by workers with lower education and those who work in professions requiring fewer skills. In this paper, we analyse the data for a selected group of countries (Austria, Croatia, Estonia, Slovenia, and Spain) from 2010 till 2022, using the Beveridge curves and estimate the labour market tightness and matching efficiency for different education and occupation groups. Our results show that differences in education levels and occupation result in relatively small deviations from aggregate trends in the labour market. Aggregate labour market trends therefore strongly impact all groups in the labour market, whether the market is segmented by education levels or by occupation. In other words, both the improvements in the labour market conditions and the worsening of labour market conditions have similar effects across different labour market segments."

Abstract
"This paper examines the relationship between a region’s population size and the match of college-educated workers to jobs that require a degree. Results show a positive relationship between degree match and county population size in the United States, with a 100,000-person increase in population associated with a 1.3-percentage point increase in the likelihood of a match. The analysis uses a person’s grade point average in college to account for the potential sorting of higher-skilled workers into larger urban areas and the dataset has individuals across a wide range of regions from small rural areas to big cities."

Abstract
"The extension of bipolar fuzzy graph is bipolar fuzzy incidence graph (BFIG) which gives the information regarding the effect of vertices on the edges. In this paper, the concept of matching in bipartite BFIG and also for BFIG is introduced. Some results and theorems of fuzzy graphs are also extended in BFIGs. The number of operations in BFIGs such as augmenting paths, matching principal numbers, relation between these principal numbers and maximum matching principal numbers are being investigated which are helpful in the selection of maximum most allied applicants for the job and also to get the maximum outcome with minimum loss (due to any controversial issues among the employees of a company). Some characteristics of maximum matching principal numbers in BFIG are explained which are helpful for solving the vertex and incidence pair fuzzy maximization problems. Lastly, obtained maximum matching principal numbers by using the matching concept to prove its applicability and effectiveness for the applications in bipartite BFIG and also for the BFIG."

Responses of unemployment to productivity changes for a general matching technology (2023)

Ryan, Rich (2023): Responses of unemployment to productivity changes for a general matching technology. In: Economics Bulletin, Jg. 43, H. 4, S. 1749-1758.
Abstract
"Workers separate from jobs, search for jobs, accept jobs, and fund consumption with their wages. Firms recruit workers to fill vacancies. Search frictions prevent firms from instantly hiring available workers. Unemployment persists. These features are described by the Diamond--Mortensen--Pissarides modeling framework. In this class of models, how unemployment responds to productivity changes depends on resources that can be allocated to job creation. Yet, this characterization has been made when matching is parameterized by a Cobb--Douglas technology. For a canonical DMP model, I (1) demonstrate that a unique steady-state equilibrium will exist as long as the initial vacancy yields a positive surplus; (2) characterize responses of unemployment to productivity changes for a general matching technology; and (3) show how a matching technology that is not Cobb--Douglas implies unemployment responds more to productivity changes, which is independent of resources available for job creation, a feature that will be of interest to business-cycle researchers."

Pre-existing company contacts and premature termination of apprenticeship training in Germany (2023)

Abstract
"Using longitudinal data from Starting Cohort 4 of the German National Educational Panel Study (NEPS), we examined whether pre-existing strong ties and weak ties in the training company are associated with the risk of premature termination of apprenticeship training in Germany. This is highly relevant for the literature on social capital in the labor market since so far little is known about the role of social contacts for the turnover propensity of labor market entrants. By examining a potentially important factor for a successful labor market integration, our research also adds to both the school-to-work and the social stratification literature. Our empirical results are only partly consistent with our theoretically derived expectations. While contrary to our expectations, we found no association between strong ties and termination probability, weak ties were, as expected, associated with a lower probability of premature training termination among those apprentices who were trained in their desired occupation. Our main results, combined with several robustness checks, let us assume that this is due to better matched training situations." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © 2024 Elsevier) ((en))

Abstract
"I discuss the recent literature that has led to new interest in the idea of monopsonistic wage setting. Building on advances in search theory and in models of differentiated products, researchers have used a number of different strategies to identify the elasticity of firm-specific labor supply. A growing consensus is that firms have some wage-setting power, though many questions remain about the sources of that power." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"Does the matching between workers and jobs help explain productivity differentials across firms? To address this question we develop a job-worker allocation quality measure (JAQ) by combining employer-employee administrative data with machine learning techniques. The proposed measure is positively and significantly associated with labor earnings over workers' careers. At firm level, it features a robust positive correlation with firm productivity, and with managerial turnover leading to an improvement in the quality and experience of management. JAQ can be constructed for any employer-employee data including workers' occupations, and used to explore the effect of corporate restructuring on workers' allocation and careers."

Eine Analyse der Qualität neu zustande gekommener Arbeitsverhältnisse (Matches) in ausgewählten Arbeitssegmenten. (IW-Report / Institut der Deutschen Wirtschaft Köln 2022,47), Köln, 24 S.
Abstract
"Die empirische Arbeitsmarktforschung ist derzeit nur eingeschränkt in der Lage, die Qualität der Ausgleichprozesse am Arbeitsmarkt anhand der Merkmale der neu zustande gekommenen Beschäftigungsverhältnisse zu beschreiben. Die Analyse von Stellenanzeigen kann zwar detaillierte Einblicke über konkrete Stellenanforderungen geben, ob diese aber auch von den späteren Stelleninhabern erfüllt werden, bleibt bei einer derartigen Analyse ungeklärt. Auswertungen der IAB-Stellenerhebung stehen unter dem Vorbehalt, dass sie nur die letzte neu besetzte Vakanz in den Blick nehmen können. Die vorliegende Studie auf Basis eines speziell für diese Zwecke bereitgestellten Datensatzes durch den Personaldienstleister Hays, der detaillierte Informationen sowohl über Stellenanforderungen als auch die Kompetenzprofile der Beschäftigten in neu zustande gekommenen Arbeitsverhältnissen enthält, zeigt die Potenziale von Analysen auf, die die Qualität einer großen Anzahl von Matching-Prozessen beschreiben wollen."

Abstract
"This paper shows that a search and matching model with idiosyncratic training cost shocks can explain the asymmetric movement of the job-finding rate over the business cycle and the decline of matching efficiency in recessions. Large negative aggregate shocks move the hiring cutoff into a part of the training cost distribution with higher density. The position of the hiring cutoff in the distribution is disciplined by the empirical elasticity of the job-finding rate with respect to market tightness. Our model explains a large fraction of the matching efficiency decline during the Great Recession and generates state-dependent effects of policy interventions."

Abstract
"We investigate the heterogeneity of assortative labor matching with respect to geography, skills, and tasks. Our contribution is to separate plant quality by education level and occupation tasks using the AKM-model. We introduce a geology-related instrument to analyze the city effect and address limited mobility bias. Using rich administrative worker-plant dataset for Norway, we show that matching of the college educated have a strong city effect. The IV estimates indicate that a doubling of city size increases the correlation between worker and plant quality by 9 percentage points. A wage decomposition shows that matching accounts for 22% of the urban wage premium adjusted for sorting. In terms of occupations, better matching in cities is observed only for non-routine abstract tasks." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © 2022 Elsevier) ((en))

Lochner, Benjamin & Christian Merkl (2022): Gender-Specific Application Behavior, Matching, and the Residual Gender Earnings Gap. (LASER discussion papers 139), Erlangen, 55 S.
Abstract
"In diesem Papier untersuchen wir das geschlechterspezifische Bewerbungs- und Einstellungsverhalten sowie deren Implikationen für die Lohnlücke. Um die zugrundeliegenden Mechanismen besser zu verstehen, leiten wir aus einem zweistufigen Matching-Modell Implikationen her, die wir auf Basis der IAB-Stellenerhebung überprüfen. Es zeigt sich, dass die Muster in den Daten konsistent mit der Theorie von linearen und nichtlinearen Produktionsfunktionen sind. Wir dokumentieren, dass sich Frauen seltener bei Hochlohn- als bei Niedriglohnfirmen bewerben. Dahingegen finden wir keinen statistisch signifikanten Unterschied in der Einstellungswahrscheinlichkeit zwischen Männern und Frauen, wenn sie sich bei Hochlohnfirmen bewerben. Diese Muster sprechen gegen die Diskriminierungshypothese aus dem theoretischen Modell, lassen sich aber dadurch erklären, dass Jobs bei Hochlohnfirmen höhere arbeitgeberseitige Flexibilitätsanforderungen haben. Wir zeigen, dass der Anteil der männlichen Bewerber in verschiedenen, beobachtbaren Flexibilitätsanforderungen ansteigt. Wenn wir den Anteil der männlichen Bewerber in Mincer-Lohnregressionen als zusätzliche erklärende Variable für Flexibilitätsanforderungen aufnehmen, sinkt der Geschlechterunterschied im Einstellungslohn zwischen Männern und Frauen um etwa 50-60 Prozent. Frauen, die in Jobs eingestellt werden, bei denen sich viele Männer bewerben, verdienen signifikant mehr als Frauen, die in vergleichbaren Jobs eingestellt werden, bei denen sich ausschließlich Frauen bewerben. Wenn Frauen mit Kindern Jobs mit hohen Flexibilitätsanforderungen annehmen, müssen sie dahingegen große Lohneinbußen im Vergleich zu Männern hinnehmen." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

Economic conditions, task shares, and overqualification (2022)

Abstract
"This article demonstrates that economic conditions affect job match quality by influencing the task shares of available jobs. Cognitive (reasoning/communication) and physical (sensory/coordination) task shares and education-based overqualification measures are generated from Canada’s Labour Force Survey, the Career Handbook, and the Occupational Information Network database. In unfavourable labour markets, cognitive task intensity decreases and physical task intensity rises. The task content of newly formed jobs is then shown to be an important empirical determinant of overqualification. A calibrated search model that accounts for these findings quantifies the costs of increased overqualification. Each percentage point increase in unemployment raises overqualification by 5.8 percentage points, partly due to changes in task shares. Economic output subsequently decreases by about 0.6%."

Abstract
"Competing explanations for the sources of nonlinearity in search and matching models indicate that they are not fully understood. This paper derives an analytical solution to a textbook model that highlights the mechanisms that generate nonlinearity and quantifies their contributions. Procyclical variation in the matching elasticity creates nonlinearity in the job finding rate, which interacts with the law of motion for unemployment. These results show the matching function choice is not innocuous. Quantitatively, the Den Haan et al. (2000) matching function more than doubles the skewness of unemployment and welfare cost of business cycles, compared to the Cobb-Douglas specification." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Brun-Schammé, Amandine & Martin Rey (2021): A new approach to skills mismatch. (OECD productivity working papers 24), Paris, 28 S. DOI:10.1787/e9563c2a-en
Abstract
"Skills mismatch - the sub-optimal use of an individual's skills in their occupation - can be a source of dissatisfaction for workers and a brake for productivity growth. In our view, a difference in the level of skills within an occupation is not sufficient to infer that a skills mismatch exists. Since skills-mismatch is the result of a disparity between the supply and demand of labour, the quantifying of skills-mismatch must therefore be based on the mechanisms involved in this disparity. We propose to include in our measurement the level of education and field of study, which are key markers of an individual's skill level in the labour market. This makes it possible to identify, among individuals whose skill level differs from others within an occupation, those whose training profile can (or cannot) explain this situation. Through using the OECD PIAAC 2012 survey, this paper first identifies with data for France, individuals who present an apparent skills mismatch according to the framework proposed. Following an international comparison of “apparent skills mismatch rates”, we conclude this study by observing how the different groups identified differ in terms of how they perceive their employment situation as well as their individual characteristics."

"This paper introduces strong complementarities in labour into an otherwise classical Diamond–Mortensen–Pissarides search model. Specifically, two workers are required to perform a task. The assumption of Nash bargaining is maintained to represent the Hosios condition transparently. We show that this setup leads to additional externalities that require more than a Hosios-style condition to be met. The surplus must be shared between the workers so that the employer internalizes additional externalities. This makes implementing efficiency even more challenging."

"Die Studie untersucht den Effekt der Expansion des Breitbandinternets auf die Matchqualität neu eingestellter Personen. Hierzu werden Daten zur regionalen Internetverfügbarkeit mit administrativen Individualdaten und Vakanzdaten für den deutschen Arbeitsmarkt kombiniert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass eine Ausweitung der Breitbandinternet-Verfügbarkeit keinen größeren Einfluss auf die Stabilität und Entlohnung neu begonnener Beschäftigungsverhältnisse hat. Diese Resultate werden auf Basis von Analysen mit Vakanzdaten bestätigt. Diese Daten erlauben einen expliziten Vergleich der Matchqualität von Personen, die online rekrutiert wurden, mit der Matchqualität von Personen, die über andere Rekrutierungskanäle eingestellt wurden. Weiterhin zeigen die Ergebnisse, dass Online-Rekrutierung nicht nur die Anzahl der Bewerbungen und den Anteil ungeeigneter Bewerbungen erhöht, sondern ebenfalls zu einer höheren Anzahl von Vakanzen führt."

Abstract
"Wage negotiation plays a central role in the dynamics of search and matching models. We explore the theoretical wage predictions of the canonical search and matching model of Diamond (1982) in laboratory bargaining experiments. Overall, wages in the experiment are less responsive to changes in the market conditions than theory predicts. Wages respond to changes in unemployment insurance in the correct direction, yet the size of the response is about half of what theory predicts. On the other hand, contrary to theory, wages are unresponsive to changes in the level of unemployment. We also find that wages of new matches are more sensitive than wages of on-going matches, and that the duration of unemployment influences wages in certain settings."
