Background and Purpose: We are living in a time of accelerated globalization, which has a far-reaching impact for youth employment. Therefore, the paper presents the problem of the transition of tertiary educated young people into the working environment in terms of the importance of education and gaining work experience during their studies. The main purpose of the study was to analyze the attitudes and thinking of students regarding the selection of studies and work experience that young people are gaining during their studies with student work in connection with their job prospects. Design/Methodology/Approach: The data used in our research come from a broader research on Slovenian Youths (SY) dating back to 2013. Among all the respondents of SY we selected those who classified themselves as students aged between 19 and 24, who filled out the part of the questionnaire pertaining to employment. The research hypotheses were tested with the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and independent samples t-test. Results: We found that among students who chose to study for different reasons there were differences in the belief that they will immediately find employment after graduating. We also found that between those students who supported themselves during their studies and those who only studied there were differences in individual statements regarding their transition from education to employment. We concluded that work during their studies, especially in the field of the profession they were studying for, had a positive impact on the thinking of students pertaining to the transition toward employment. Conclusion: The analysis of employment issues faced by young people with tertiary education was supported by empirical data, while in conclusion suggestions for improvement were presented. The article also deepens the understanding of the problems of youth employment in a broader perspective and the understanding of the observed developments in society.

Sekundarni povzetek:	Ozadje in namen: Smo v času pospešene globalizacije, ki ima daljnosežen vpliv na zaposlovanje mladih. Zato v prispevku predstavljamo problematiko prehoda terciarno izobraženih mladih v delovno okolje z vidika pomena izobraževanja in pridobivanja delovnih izkušenj med študijem. Glavni namen raziskave je bil analizirati stališča in razmišljanja študentov glede izbora študija in delovnih izkušenj, ki jih mladi pridobivajo med študijem s študentskim delom v povezavi z njihovimi pričakovanji glede zaposlitve. Zasnova/metodologija/pristop: Vir podatkov je predstavljala raziskava Slovenska Mladina iz leta 2013. V vzorcu smo zajeli tiste, ki so imeli status študenta in so bili stari med 19 in 24 let ter so izpolnili del vprašalnika, ki se je nanašal na zaposlitev. Raziskovalne hipoteze smo testirali z analizo variance in t-testom za neodvisna vzorca. Rezultati: Ugotovili smo, da med študenti, ki so izbrali študij iz različnih razlogov, obstajajo razlike v prepričanju, da bodo takoj po študiju našli zaposlitev. Ugotovili smo tudi, da med študenti, ki poleg študija delajo in tistimi, ki samo študirajo, obstajajo razlike v posameznih izjavah glede njihovega prehoda iz izobraževanja v zaposlitev. Zaključili smo, da delo med študijem, še posebej na področju stroke pozitivno vpliva na razmišljanja študentov glede prehoda v zaposlitev. Zaključek: Aktualna obravnava problematike zaposlovanja terciarno izobraženih mladih je podprta z empiričnimi podatki, v zaključku pa so podani predlogi za izboljšanje stanja. Članek tako pripomore k razumevanju problematike zaposlovanja mladih s širšega vidika in k razumevanju opazovanih dogajanj v družbi.
