Majority of hires never report looking for a job
Visschers, Ludo; Hobijn, Bart; Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos; Perkowski, Patryk (2015)
Every month, millions of workers search for new jobs although they already have one. About one-tenth of these searchers switch employers in the following month. However, most of the job switchers in the United States never reported having looked for a job. This implies that, rather than those workers finding jobs, the jobs actually found them.
