This paper tests whether aggregate matching is consistent with unemployment being mainly due to search frictions or due … to job queues. Using U.K. data and correcting for temporal aggregation bias, estimates of the random matching function … are consistent with previous work in this field, but random matching is formally rejected by the data. The data instead …

I study a dynamic search-matching model with two-sided heterogeneity, a production complementarity that induces labor …

This paper quantifies the impact of the Hartz reforms on matching efficiency, using monthly SOEP gross worker flows … the outflow rate (job finding) has been steadily increasing. This indicates that matching efficiency has improved … substantially in recent years. Results from an estimated matching function — pointing to efficiency gains of more than 20 …

trends in empirical matching functions. We investigate whether these trends simply arise from omitted variable bias … variable bias. As suggested by this result, we present evidence that empirical matching functions can be interpreted as … versions of the law of motion for vacancies: the coefficients in matching functions coincide with the coefficients in the law …
