Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the impact of different factors in the transition of young people aged 15 to 29 years from the school to work in five transition countries from the region of South East and Eastern Europe, with similar institutional and economic framework. Through the use of probit model, authors analyze the importance of each of the factors and what is their influence in the transition of young man and women and what determines the probability of being employed or unemployed after finishing the school. The authors found that that factors such as age, sex, financial situation of household, mother's education and having working experience while studying have significance on the probability of a person being employed whereas other factors such as field of education, living area and marital status does not influence.
