Abstract

Relying on data from 2007 to 2008 CHIP, we use the duration model to analyze the relationship between urban agglomeration and job search behavior. We find that urban agglomeration can improve the quality of the labor market; the duration of unemployment is shorter in big cities. Furthermore, we find that job search intensity of migrants is stronger but urban dwellers can find jobs more easily. Our study enriches the existing research on urban agglomeration and job search behavior in the labor market.
