경력직 직장이동에 대한 연구: 비생산직 외부노동시장의 확대를 중심으로

Researchers suggest that experienced-job mobility is increasing in recent years as the external labor market expands in the Korean labor market. This study aims to enhance the understanding of experienced-job mobility, and analyzes the determinants of experienced-job mobility and the effects of experienced-job mobility on the returns to job mobility. Experienced-job mobility is specified as changes in rank, acknowledgement of experience, and wage negotiation. The factors that can affect experienced-job mobility include the factors facilitating the accumulation of experience, characteristics of job search, demographic characteristics, human capital, and structural characteristics of organizations. Results of analyses show that by and large, the above factors affect experienced-job mobility in different ways depending on how to specify experienced-job mobility. This means that experienced-job mobility is a multidimensional process. Results of analyses on the effects of experienced-job mobility on the returns to job mobility show that changes in rank and acknowledgement of experience increases income. They also show that changes in rank, acknowledgement of experience, and wage negotiation all make employees more satisfied with their job. These results imply that employees can take experienced-job mobility into consideration in order to increase the returns to their work.
