2013 survey of the 2010 cohort: the gap between levels of qualification widens as the crisis deepens

In 2013, three years after leaving the education system, 22 per cent of economically active young people were looking for work. This is the highest level ever observed in CEREQ’s school-to-work transition surveys. The increase compared with the 2004 cohort is 16 percentage points for non-graduates and three percentage points for graduates of long degree programmes. Nevertheless, first jobs are neither more precarious nor less well paid.
