Inspired by sorting theory, we infer firm productivity from estimating firm …-level production functions, taking into account that worker ability and firm productivity may interact at the match level. Using German …, driven by new matches between low-productivity firms and low-ability workers. At the top, sorting decreases, reflected in …
