Note: Standard errors in parentheses. All standard errors clustered on applicant. Demographic controls include gender, race-ethnicity, age, marital status, and educational attainment. Respondents who did not report their weeks of unemployment in the baseline survey are coded as being unemployed for the mean number of weeks for their baseline employment status. The model contains a separate indicator variable for whether this information was missing for the respondent. Occupation controls include the twenty-three categories of the SOC system for the previous occupation held by the applicant. The model also includes controls for the number of applications submitted by a respondent, the number of survey waves they participated in, and whether they did not indicate how many hours they would prefer to work for in a week.
