Abstract	Spätere (möglicherweise abweichende) Version erschienen als: IZA discussion paper. - "This paper studies the causal effect of student internship experience in firms on earnings later in life. We use mandatory firm internships at German universities as an instrument for doing a firm internship while attending university. Employing longitudinal data from graduate surveys, we find positive and significant earnings returns of about 6% in both OLS and IV regressions. The positive returns are particularly pronounced for individuals and areas of study that are characterized by a weak labor market orientation. The empirical findings show that graduates who completed a firm internship face a lower risk of unemployment during the first year of their careers, suggesting a smoother transition to the labor market." The study refers to the period 2001-2009. (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System).
