Business cycle asymmetries and the labor market
Kohlbrecher, Britta; Merkl, Christian - 2022
This paper shows that a search and matching model with idiosyncratic training cost shocks can explain the asymmetric movement of the job-finding rate over the business cycle and the decline of matching efficiency in recessions. Large negative aggregate shocks move the hiring cutoff into a part...
