本研究使用2005年「台灣社會變遷基本調查的附加專題：東亞社會階層與社會流動研究」中的回朔性工作史進行事件史分析，透過logit迴歸模型證明初職的確對現職會產生影響。比起典型工作，男性的初職為非典型的工作類型則日後落入非典型工作的可能性也較高，而女性隨著世代推演，即使初職為非典型工作日後也不見得就會進入非典型工作，研究結果說明不同世代中男/女性面臨截然不同的處境。

Does the type of the first job matter?
An investigation of cohort and gender differences in the current job types.
This study investigates the influence of young adults’ first job after graduating from school on their later status attainment. From life course perspective, transition from school to work is an important event to young adults . They experience role changes during the transition., Furthermore, their early employment experiences cumulatively affect their subsequent career development (Shanahan & Mortimer, 2002). This study aims to investigate the link between types of first job and the current jobs in the segmented labor market, and how the link differs across cohorts and genders. The current study analyzes retrospective job history data from “Taiwan Social Change Survey, 2005: Social Stratification and Social Mobility in Three Countries” with event history analysis.
Results indicated that the types of the first job affects the types of the current job and the impact was different between cohorts and genders.
Keywords: first job、event history analysis、cohort difference、nonstandard work、life course
