本文提供了印度劳动力市场存在大量匹配摩擦的证据。特别是,职业培训机构的就业人员对他们想要安排工作的候选人的工作偏好知之甚少。我们首先采用几种方法来引出候选人对不同类型工作的真正偏好,并表明:(a)对相同工作的偏好存在实质性差异;(b)安置人员对其了解不足。然后,我们向安置机构提供这些信息,并检查其对安置和就业结果的影响。我们发现,职业介绍所接近于有效地为求职者匹配工作面试,即使考虑到潜在员工群体内部的再分配,匹配方面也有总体改善。最后,我们发现,根据应聘者的偏好来衡量,他们最终得到的工作质量有了实质性的提高。JEL代码:J22、J24、J61、J62、J64
This paper provides evidence of substantial matching frictions in the Indian labor market. In particular, placement o cers in vocational training institutes have very little information about the job preferences of candidates who they are trying to place in jobs. We begin by adopting several methods to elicit genuine preferences of candidates over di erent types of jobs and show that: (a) there is a substantial variation in preferences over the same jobs and (b) placement o cers have poor knowledge of it. We then provide placement o cers with this information and examine its impact on placement and employment outcomes. We nd that placement o cers come close to e ciently matching candidates to job interviews and that there is an overall improvement in matching even after taking into account redistribution within a group of potential employees. Lastly, we nd substantial improvement in the quality of jobs that the treated candidates end up with, as measured by their preferences. JEL codes: J22, J24, J61, J62, J64
