In this paper, the role of social networks on the labour market outcomes of rural migrants in
China is investigated. Information on the size and quality of the network are derived using data
from a unique survey and are used to estimate regression models of wages on social networks.
The main findings indicate that for migrants who found a job through informal channels, having
a larger network and an employed closest tie is associated with higher wages. These results are
corroborated testing the same models for individuals who found the job through more formal
channels. Potential threats to the internal validity of the results are discussed and evidence is
provided to support the fact that endogeneity issues do not affect the results.
