Decomposing the gender wage gap in the Netherlands with sample selection adjustments
Albrecht, James W.; Vuuren, Aico van; Vroman, Susan B. - 2004
selection is a serious issue. In addition to shedding light onthe sources of the gender gap in the Netherlands, we make two … simulate. Second, we show how the technique can be extended toaccount for selection.We find that there is a positive selection … time. We find that about two-thirds of this selection isdue to observables such as education and experience with the …

Multiple Applications, Competing Mechanisms, and Market Power
Albrecht, James W.; Cai, Xiaoming; Gautier, Pieter; … - 2019
We consider a labor market with search frictions in which workers make multiple applications and firms can post and commit to general mechanisms that may be conditioned both on the number of applications received and on the number of offers received by its candidate. When the contract space...

Equilibrium directed search with multiple applications
Albrecht, James W.; Gautier, Pieter; Vroman, Susan B. - 2005
We analyse a model of equilibrium directed search in a large labour market. Each worker, observing the wages posted at all vacancies, makes a fixed, finite number of applications, a. We allow for the possibility of ex post competition should more than one vacancy want to hire the same worker....
