Abstract

Summary In this paper, we discuss the salient information drawn from a Delphi experiment (Shang version) on some Italian job market issues realised by an email interview of a panel of experts. We define firstly the job quality dimensions of newly hired graduates and then compare it with the possible situation of graduates at the end of their careers. The dimensions are compared with a multivariate statistical analysis on the relationships between the satisfaction perceived by the Paduan graduates for their own job, and some personal and job characteristics. Such an evaluation may suggest new criteria for a future survey on “external effectiveness” of university education based on graduates’ reports. The dimensions of initial and end-of-career quality of graduates are correlated to the experts’ concepts through a semantic differential analysis.
