The basic intuition underlying our empirical strategy is that, in the presence of positive … (negative) assortative matching, good workers are more (less) likely to move to better firms than bad workers. Assuming that … matching is pervasive in the labor market. This result is in contrast with what we find from correlating the worker and firm …

Long-Run Sectoral Reallocation, Job to Job Transitions, and Earnings Inequality : An Empirical Investigation
Hoffmann, Florian - 2016
Using data from the Census, ACS and the CPS, we document that a large part of long-run reallocation of labor from the goods to the service sector took place within narrowly defined groups of workers. In particular, sectoral reallocation reflects a labor market trend that is distinct from the...
