Abstract: This article presents a study of the impact of interregional mobility in the process of professional integration of graduates of higher education in 2004 in Tunisia. The Tunisian labor market has been characterized over the last decade by both qualitative and quantitative imbalance between supply surplus employment and less intensive demand for skilled labor. Since then, the difficulties of the employability of graduates have increased particularly aggravated in this by a strong spatial inequality in employment opportunities. The analysis of migration flows has allowed us to focus on the imbalance between the governorates especially in terms of concentrations of economic activities. We then specified and estimated a gravity model, which has allowed us to identify the determinants of job mobility. The role of features in the governorates of departure seems to outweigh that of destination, in the structuring of mobility processes studied.
