【摘要】This paper studies how the technological similarity affects job seekers mobility decisions and the potential consequence on the wage premium. We manually matched the employee-employer data using over 50,000 resumes of online job seekers from a leading recruitment website in China. by estimating a conditional logit model, our empirical results confirm that the technological similarity plays a prominent role in determining the firm choice of high-skill workers， corresponding to increases the odds of the worker joining a similar firm by 14.7%. We further show that the technological overlap between the pre-and post-transition firm increases the jobseekers’ wage premium by 7.9%. In addition, the wage premium of technological similarity is particularly higher for the younger, and better-educated individuals. Our findings highlight the essential role of technological fits on effectively absorbing some specific human capital of job seekers.
