30% to 100% more likely to be Civil and Business Engineers compared to Bachelet’s, while the likelihood of hires being Social Scientists was 30% to 60% lower. Notably, there were no consistent effects for the other three professional groups.

6) We find bureaucratic careers are largely static, with scant horizontal or vertical mobility. This suggests there are low incentives for performance. However, vertical mobility is more frequent for low-level positions, while professionals and managers move a bit more between agencies.

Some findings of interest: 1) We find a small but noticeable "jump" in turnover in the first year after elections, when an opposing coalition takes power; 2) The longevity of job spells varies according to their rank or function, with managerial positions being substantially shorter-lived.
