Summary/Abstract: This article presents the results of a qualitative research which had as main objective the analysis of the population’s perceptions regarding the transition process from school to the labor market. From the theoretical point of view, we will mainly resort to those theories and perspectives arguing that in the analysis of the transition from school to the labor market a relevant part is played by the understanding of the behavior, attitudes and perceptions of the individuals involved in the process. From the empirical point of view, the analysis of the transition process from school to the labor market is based on the views and perceptions of 54 people, men and women, aged between 20 and 60 years of age, with different occupations and levels of education, who have been surveyed in the time period January 2015 to June 2015.
