Abstract:
This study examines the salary expectations of young graduates entering Moldova’s labor market, highlighting the discrepancies between their aspirations and the realities of local employment conditions. Higher education is often perceived as an investment in future financial stability, motivating graduates to anticipate substantial returns. However, Moldova's transitioning economy, marked by regional disparities and limited opportunities, often fails to meet these expectations. CZU: 331.2:331.5.024.5-053.81(478); JEL: C46, E24, J21, O15
