Abstract: This paper provides a longitudinal follow-up of graduates, in management and accounting. This report shows the main indicators related to labor trajectories and position in the labor market for students of the generation 2007-2011. Students were interviewed two years after discharge (2013), to assess the relevance of educational programs. The results indicate that before the end of the studies, two thirds of those studying management, have been incorporated in to the labor market in positions with medium or total coincidence with studies. Later, when they conclude their studies, about 75% get a job in less than a year. Regarding accounting graduates, before completing school, 80% have been incorporated in to the labor market, in positions with medium or total coincidence with the subject studied (77%). When they conclude their studies, 87% got a job in less than a year and the requirement that most influenced hiring was a formal interview (67%).
