EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY AND THE FIRST JOB
The Russian sociology provides extensive coverage of youth employment problems. The transition from an educational institution to the labor market and the start of the work career is regarded as critically important. The correspondence between workplace skills and education is emphasized as have special relevance to mobility issues. This is viewed as important in view of the correspondence of two basic social institutions – education and labor market. However, in the studies dedicated to youth employment there are lacunae related to structural changes such as parameters of social mobility in relation to the first job position in the socio-professional structure. The article analyzes the interrelation of the given factors. It deals with a linkage between educational mobility viewed as a change of educational status in comparison with parental level and the occupational status of the first job. It is hypothesized that upward educational mobility is related to high parental status positions in the occupational status. The analysis uses the data obtained in the study «Social distinctions in modern Russia” based on a representative sample of 5335 respondents. The sample is divided into 4 generations. The article consists of three parts. The first one provides a summary of the studies of social mobility and youth employment in Russian sociology. Then it concentrates on the analysis of available data. In the third part it contains speculation and conclusions.
