Abstract
V originále
This study evaluates the wage effects of student employment. This empirical analysis employs data from a Masaryk University alumni survey conducted in April 2020. Research shows that students who worked before graduation and continued the same employment after graduation earn 8% more relative to graduates who started a new employment after graduation. The results are robust to the inclusion of controls for student academic performance, education specialization, and job characteristics. A striking result is that a high gender pay gap (over 20%) emerges very early in the career of university graduates.
