DESCRIPTION:This paper estimates the causal effect of recruitment competiti
 on on firms’ labor demand for high-skilled foreign workers. I assemble a 
 new data set\, combining a firm-level panel of all Labor Condition Applicat
 ions (LCAs) submitted as a first step to obtaining H-1B visas between 2010 
 and 2019 with online job vacancies and data on venture capital (VC) investm
 ents. I use plausibly quasi-exogeneous variation in VC investments in start
 -ups to instrument yearly changes in recruitment competition at the local l
 abor market level. I find that a one standard deviation increase in the num
 ber of job postings advertised by start-ups yields an 8 percent increase in
  the number of LCAs submitted by employers in the market and a 3 percent in
 crease in the wages advertised in these LCAs. Estimates are only significan
 t for computer occupations. These results support the role of labor market 
 tightness in explaining the absence of the crowding-out effect from H-1B wo
 rkers against close native substitutes.\\n\\nContact: Nathalie Ferrière:
