| Résumé : | We use detailed German data to carefully document how the vacancy-filling hazard evolves from the recruiting firms’ perspectives. We further show how firms adjust their search behaviour when they are unable to fill their vacancy within the planned search duration. We find that the vacancy-filling hazard is increasing during the planned search period and that it decreases thereafter. Most applicants arrive early in the recruitment process. Firms’ willingness to pay higher wages or to hire less qualified, inexperienced or unemployed applicants increases when firms are unable to hire before the intended starting date. Models of random search, directed search, and stock-flow matching differ substantially in the way they assume that job seekers and firms behave during the recruitment process in these respects and we conjecture that our findings are most readily explained by stock-flow matching models - if these were amended by time-consuming screening technologies.
