This paper reevaluates the quantitative performance of the standard labor-market matching model developed by Mortensen and Pissarides with special attention to the behavior of vacancies, one of the key variables in the model. I first estimate trivariate vector autoregressions with gross worker...

We revisit measurement of Employer-to-Employer (EE) transitions, the main engine of labor market competition and employment reallocation, in the monthly Current Population Survey (CPS). We follow Fallick and Fleischman (2004) and exploit a key survey question introduced with the 1994 CPS...

The calibrated model successfully replicates (i) countercyclical worker flows between employment and unemployment, (ii …. The cyclical properties of worker flows between employment and unemployment differ from those of job flows, partly because …

In particular, the model correctly predicts that hires from unemployment move countercyclically … through unemployment but is part of job creation, for which procyclicality of the job finding rate dominates its cyclicality …. We also show that the model generates large volatilities of unemployment and vacancies when a worker's outside option is …
