520 $a Overall, the two empirical studies indicate a new model of career progression in the current organizational context.
520 $a The recent departure from the traditional organizational work practices and of human resource management has affected individuals' career progression, both within and outside the organization. Using two related empirical studies, this dissertation examines the effects of new organizational practices and of individuals' return to education after having joined the labor force on their career progression.
520 $a In the first study, I analyze how the introduction of new organizational practices centered on higher employee involvement has affected individuals' promotions within the organization. High involvement practices may enhance employees' human capital and behaviors such as proactivity and self-efficacy, thus creating greater opportunities for advancement. In addition, such practices may also alter the organizational structure and therefore change the opportunities for an individual's promotions. Using a unique U.S. matched employer-employee dataset I find a positive association between promotions and high involvement jobs even after controlling for human capital and organizational hierarchy. The results provide evidence for a new model in which seniority is no longer the unique criteria to advance in organizations.
520 $a In the second study, I examine individuals' career trajectories when they return to education after having gained some experience in the labor force. I analyze how the value of experience changes as individuals accumulate further education. Individuals may gain new skills from education that substitute for work skills. They may also signal their productivity to the labor market. Using a U.S. representative sample of MBA students across different schools, I find that the results are consistent with substitution and signaling arguments. The effect of work experience on starting salaries upon graduation changes depending on the type of MBA pursued. Experience is less important for students that graduate from high status schools and with a field of specialization related to the job they take upon graduation.
