Abstract

The young people unemployment rate is critical at both the EU level and in Romania at the actual moment. The main cause of this situation is considered to be the inadequacy of the educational system at the requirements of the labour market. In this respect, we conduct a survey among the Romanian students in economic sciences on the ease of finding jobs. The results support this idea. The students consider that the information received in universities will not be of great help in conducting their activity as employee, and the period of training is deemed necessary.
