Abstract:In this paper, the first estimates are provided concerning the determinants of the duration (hereafter as: durn.) of employer search in the U.K. Durn. is modelled until a vacancy is either successfully filled or dropped out from the market. Using flexible and parametric baseline hazards, the econometric techniques deal with multiple vacancies and unobserved heterogeneity. The hazards to filling and withdrawing exhibit negative and positive durn. dependence respectively, implying that the conditional probability of successful employer search decreases with duration.
