Abstract

Along with labor market rigidity and barriers to occupational mobility, educational mismatch is one of the most costly factors in labor markets. The relationship between educational mismatch and the labor market is increasingly a major concern of education and labor economists. This phenomenon, which was once evident in developed countries, is now more evident in developing countries, particularly in Cameroon. It is in light of this disturbing reality that this study seeks to understand the effect of educational mismatches on the transition of graduates to the labor market in Cameroon. Thus, we apply the “Competing risk regression” method to data from the fourth Cameroonian Household Survey (ECAM IV). The general result of this analysis is that mismatch risks increase the duration of unemployment, i.e., they negatively impact the transition of graduates to the labor market. Taking into account the endogeneity of mismatches, the econometric results show that educational mismatch risks increase the duration of unemployment.
