Wages, Mobility and Firm Performance: Advantages and Insights from Using Matched Worker–Firm Data* (2006, positive): “This process is very much in the spirit of work by Jovanovic (1979), Flinn (1986), Topel and Ward (1992), Buchinsky et al. (2002) for micro-matching models or earlier work by Lillard and Willis (1978), Mincer and Jovanovic (1981) for the whole economy.”
The Macrodynamics of Sorting between Workers and Firms (2013, methodology): “We adopt the sequential auction framework of Postel-Vinay and Robin (2002).”
Gender Discrimination Estimation in a Search Model with Matching and Bargaining (2005, neutral): “The hazard rate is given by the probability to meet an employer times the probability to accept the match: hJ = λJ e GJ(ρUJ) (40)”
Efficient Firm Dynamics in a Frictional Labor Market (2015, positive): “Work following the lines of Burdett and Mortensen (1998), Postel-Vinay and Robin (2002), and Moscarini and Postel-Vinay (2010) focuses additionally on the worker flows between firms in random-search environments.”
The Cyclical Volatility of Labor Markets Under Frictional Financial Markets (2010, positive): “Taking log-linear deviations around a steady state of equation (18), deviations in labor market tightness in the credit frictionless world can be expressed as a discounted sum of deviations in future expected profits θ̂ P t = q(θ P)Π ηγ(1+ r) Et ∞ ∑ i=0 ( 1− s 1+ r )i Π̂t+1+i Given a fixed wage and ”
Differences in Labor Supply to Monopsonistic Firms and the Gender Pay Gap: An Empirical Analysis Using Linked Employer‐Employee Data from Germany (2010, background): “Studies finding higher search frictions for less qualified workers and workers in occupations requiring less skills include, for instance, van den Berg and Ridder (1998), Postel-Vinay and Robin (2002), and Manning (2003, 44–49).”
Imperfect Competition in the Labor Market (2011, background): “A number of papers look at the institution of offer-matching (Postel-Vinay and Robin, 2002) in which the two employers engage in Bertrand competition for the worker.”
High Wage Workers Work for High Wage Firms (2017, methodology): “We approach this in several ways, always motivated by economic theories such as Burdett and Mortensen (1998) and Postel-Vinay and Robin (2002).”
Learning Your Comparative Advantages (2014, methodology): “7For evidence of job-to-job mobility involving wage cuts see Postel-Vinay and Robin (2002) and Lopes de Melo (2007). carry out policy exercises.8 Our setup is calibrated to match the wages of occupational choices of experienced workers who have learned their type and those entering the labor market.”
Earnings, consumption and lifecycle choices (2010, background): “If we think about the match specific effect as being produced by a combination of the qualities of the worker and of the firm, then as in Postel-Vinay and Robin(2002), we can work out the pay policy of the firm under different assumptions on the strategies that individuals and firms follow.”
