Individual, firm-specific and regional effects on internal employment trajectories in Germany: with special focus on education, further training and skill formation

Abstract: The employment period is an important and central stage in the life course which influences the opportunities in life in different ways (Kreckel 1990; Kocka and Offe 2000; Vobruba 1990, 2000).
