Les cheminements des étudiants vers l'insertion professionnelle: Entre se « placer » et se « trouver »

Abstract

This article deals with the value and the representation that the students have of their studies, their career plan and their integration into the world of work. The students differentiate themselves from each other according to their vision of the future, depending on their future prospects. Through the analysis of the "undecided" students, we will try to point out to what extent this indecisiveness may reveal the signs of a tension between a logic of job integration and that of self-accomplishment. This tension also influences the "determined" students.
