Abstract: Labour mobility is by far the most common mobility type in the case of Romanian youth, The purpose of the paper is to provide a description of the Romanian mobile youth, aged between 18 and 29 years, based on their characteristics, and also to identify their common features and to classify them by applying multi-dimensional statistical techniques. Using descriptive and cluster analysis, there were identified three clusters corresponding to three types of mobilities: a short-term mobility, preferred by young respondents which was associated with seasonal work; a medium-term mobility in countries like UK, Northern countries or outside the European Union; and a long-term mobility in European Union countries, with high wage profiles like: Germany, Austria, Belgium, etc. The analysis uses data resulted from the recent MOVE European project and covering 8706 respondents from six countries, including Romania.
