We use standard decomposition techniques and test the implications of controlling for selection bias. Our results indicate that over-education and greater occupational segregation associated with the emergence of new graduate job profiles are impor-tant determinants of earnings inequality. Whilst our focus is on graduates' early careers, demonstrating that occupational assignment and selection into employ-ment shape gender pay gaps amongst the highly skilled provides a more pessimistic view on the ability of educational expansion or equal pay legislation to significantly reduce gender pay inequality. Southern European economies are also particularly interesting to look at since there may be a greater degree of mismatch between the pace of higher education expansion and the changes in the job structure, making women particularly vulnerable to over-education.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></record></records></xml>
