Job Market Paper
The Geography of Job Search and Mismatch Unemployment, with Ioana Marinescu.
Can we reduce unemployment by moving job seekers to areas with better job opportunities? To answer this
question, we need data on the distance between job seekers and the jobs they apply to. Using novel data from the
popular website CareerBuilder.com, we quantify how application probability declines with distance from the job
seekers' zip code of residence. 82% of applications are sent to jobs within the same city (Core-Based Statistical
Area, CBSA), but only 46% are sent to jobs within the same county. We build a simple search-and-matching
framework in which job seekers have a distaste for distance and use our data to estimate its parameters. Using
our model, we nd that US unemployment could be reduced by up to 3% by reallocating job seekers across zip
codes. This magnitude of mismatch is similar to what we nd using data aggregated at the CBSA level. Our
evidence suggests that the CBSA is an acceptable denition of a local labor market.
