Unemployment and endogenous reallocation over the business cycle

Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos; Visschers, Ludo - 2013

We build an analytically and computationally tractable stochastic equilibrium model of unemployment in heterogeneous labor markets. Facing search frictions within markets and reallocation frictions between markets, workers endogenously separate from employment and endogenously reallocate between...

Caught in the cycle: economic conditions at enrollment and labor market outcomes of college graduates

Bičáková, Alena; Cortes, Guido Matias; Mazza, Jacopo - 2020

We find robust evidence that cohorts of male graduates who start college during worse economic times earn higher average wages than those who start during better times. This gap is not explained by differences in selection into employment, in economic conditions at the time of college...
