Researchers have developed a novel method to assess the quality of worker-firm matches by analyzing the survival rates of employment relationships. Utilizing a two-tower neural network, the system embeds workers and firms into a shared space, with match quality determined by the cosine similarity of their respective vectors. This approach, applied to data encompassing 101 million workers and 8.4 million firms, indicates that improved match quality significantly reduces employee turnover and leads to higher worker earnings, faster firm growth, increased profitability, and more valuable patents.
