of upskilling - firms demanding more-skilled workers when local employment growth is slower. We find that upskilling is … sizable in magnitude and largely due to changes in skill requirements within firm-occupation cells. We argue that upskilling … more over the same time period; and 3) upskilling is concentrated within routine-task occupations - those most vulnerable …

We show that skill requirements in job vacancy postings differentially increased in MSAs that were hit hard by the Great Recession, relative to less hard-hit areas. These increases persist through at least the end of 2015 and are correlated with increases in capital investments, both at the MSA...
