Abstract
McCall (1970) examines the search behaviour of an infinitely-lived and risk-neutral job seeker maximizing her lifetime earnings by accepting or rejecting real-valued scalar wage offers. In practice, job offers have multiple attributes, and job seekers solve a multicriteria search problem. This paper presents a multicriteria search model and new comparative statics results.
