This paper adds a quasi-network to a search model of the labor market. Fitting the model to an average unemployment … rate and to other moments in the data implies the presence of the network is not noticeable in the basic properties of the … unemployment and job finding rates. However, the network creates downward sloping reemployment hazards which the basic model does …

Search-matching theory has come to dominate labor economics in recent years, but few attempts have been made to compare … the empirical relevance of search-matching theory to efficiency wage and bargaining theories, where employment is … theory and a standard labor demand model. Estimation on firm-level data yields support for the labor demand model. Wages and …
