Thesis
Summary This thesis is composed of four chapters that can be read independently. Each of the chapters focuses on a particular moment in the trajectories of French youth through the education system to their entry into the labor market and their transition to employment. Throughout these trajectories, individuals orient themselves in the school system and make occupational choices. This work focuses on understanding these choices and the impact they may have on the future of individuals. Although each of these works is autonomous, they all focus on explaining inequalities in the school and labor market of young people in France and on characterizing how these are linked. The thesis contributes to economic research by asking original questions about the individual decisions that young people make during their life course and by answering these questions with empirical methods adapted to the problem and the available data.
