%0 Report %A Habermalz, Steffen %T The Speed of Employer Learning and Job Market Signaling Revisited %D 2006 %8 2006 Sep %I Institute of Labor Economics (IZA) %C Bonn %7 IZA Discussion Paper %N 2309 %U https://www.iza.org/publications/dp2309 %X This paper discusses the claim made in Altonji and Pierret (1997) and Lange (2005) that a high speed of employer learning indicates a low value of job market signaling. The claim is first discussed intuitively in light of Spence’s original model and then evaluated in a simple extension of a model developed in Altonji and Pierret (1997). The analysis provided indicates that, if employer learning is incomplete, a high speed of employer learning is not necessarily indicative of a low value of job market signaling. %K employer learning %K signaling
