Abstract: In recent years, the role of higher education has increased significantly in the development of national economies, due to the expansion of the knowledge economy, which creates and transforms knowledge into innovation. This paper aims to analyze elements of job satisfaction of people who have completed higher education. Thus, the study was dedicated only to graduates of a higher education cycle and to those who are active on the labor market. As anticipated, the research results revealed that the specialized knowledge influences the employment rate of the graduates. At the same time, the results also indicated that a high level of knowledge acquired during specialized studies (specialized knowledge, IT, teamwork, ability to analyze and synthesize, critical thinking) contributes to increasing employee satisfaction at work. The usefulness of this study lies in the fact that it helps young people in choosing the future field of activity, as they know that a job in the field of specialized studies contributes to increasing job satisfaction.
