【报告摘要】
In this study, we analyze data on online job postings by US public firms to investigate their R&D activities. Our findings reveal a consistent increase in the demand for R&D human capital from 2010 to 2021. Controlling for other commonly used indicators of firms’ R&D activities, such as R&D expenses and narrative R&D information in 10-K filings, we find that R&D job postings possess incremental predictive power for firms’ future innovation performance. This predictive power is particularly pronounced for firms with higher growth opportunities or lower labor intensity and for R&D job postings that require disruptive technology skills or advanced education. Furthermore, the skills listed in R&D job postings align with the types of patents firms file in the future. Overall, our results highlight the significance of R&D job postings as a valuable source of information regarding firms’ innovation activities.
