Abstract: This article examines the recent changes in the career aspirations and vocational choices of German secondary school leavers. The results based on data of the School Graduate surveys 2005-2012 show that the interest of young people in knowledge-related service professions has increased, while the number of adolescents expressing an interest in production occupations has decreased significantly over time. It is argued that this shift in career aspirations of young people can be linked to the educational expansion which has led to a surge in the number of high-skilled graduates. These individuals express strong and mostly stable preferences for vocational training in knowledge-related service professions.
