摘要

我们利用美国的行政数据，探讨了新企业中的同种族招聘。在移民群体中，同种族雇员的比例普遍存在，平均约为22.5%，从不足2%到超过40%不等。随着当地少数民族劳动力的规模、与英语的语言距离越来越远、与美国本地人的文化/基因相似性越来越低，以及对移民的政策环境越来越苛刻，同种族招聘也在增加。对于企业和个人来说，同种族的招聘是非常持久的。当大量的当地族裔雇员围绕着企业时，同族裔雇员与更大的风险生存和增长有关。我们的研究结果与基于族裔群体内部信息优势的招聘和一些基于品味的招聘相一致。

Whose Job Is It Anyway? Coethnic Hiring in New US Ventures

We explore coethnic hiring among new ventures, using US administrative data. Coethnic hiring is ubiquitous among immigrant groups, averaging about 22.5% and ranging from less than 2% to more than 40%. Coethnic hiring grows with the size of the local ethnic workforce, greater linguistic distance to English, and lower cultural/genetic similarity to US natives and in harsher policy environments for immigrants. Coethnic hiring is remarkably persistent for ventures and for individuals. Coethnic hiring is associated with greater venture survival and growth when thick local ethnic employment surrounds the business. Our results are consistent with a blend of hiring due to information advantages within ethnic groups and some taste-based hiring.

期刊介绍： Journal of Human Capital is dedicated to human capital and its expanding economic and social roles in the knowledge economy. Developed in response to the central role human capital plays in determining the production, allocation, and distribution of economic resources and in supporting long-term economic growth, JHC is a forum for theoretical and empirical work on human capital—broadly defined to include education, health, entrepreneurship, and intellectual and social capital—and related public policy analyses. JHC encompasses microeconomic, macroeconomic, and international economic perspectives on the theme of human capital. The journal offers a platform for discussion of topics ranging from education, labor, health, and family economics.
