Labor markets tighten—but entry wages don’t move. How do firms adjust?
Our new paper finds German SMEs lower hiring standards and invest more after hiring: adaptation periods +11%, informal training +15%.

🚀 What helps young people get a strong start in the labor market?
Stronger skills help young people start in better training firms. Stronger math skills pay off after graduation — with higher returns for those with stronger social skills.

Manuel Aepli, @SamMuehlemann, Harald Pfeifer, @SchweriJurg, Felix Wenzelmann, Stefan Wolter identify a hiring cost elasticity of apprenticeship contracts for Swiss firms, meaning that firms facing a tightness-related increase in hiring costs in turn train more apprentices.
In new research we find that German firms adjust hiring standards, not wages, in response to labor market tightness, which affects pre- and post-match hiring costs: t.ly/FobUH #SkilledWorkerShortages #HiringStandards #HiringCosts
In new research, we find that Swiss firms strongly expand apprenticeship training if tight labor markets make hiring more costly. German firms also react, but less so: @iza_bonn t.ly/M0f3X #Apprenticeships #HiringCosts

My paper "Business Cycles and Apprenticeships" (joint with Stefan Wolter) is now out in the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Economics and Finance. Business cycle effects are moderate on average, but there is substantial heterogeneity across countries: doi.org/10.1093/acrefore/978…
Our paper on supply shocks in the market for apprenticeship training is now out in the Economics of Education Review.
Positive supply shocks due to a school reform in Germany led to more apprenticeships contracts, but had no effects on apprentice wages doi.org/10.1016/j.econedurev…
