Zusammenfassung:The aim of this paper is to determine how education has an effect on the probability of young unemployed people to find a job, by using a regional dataset provided by the Public Employment Service from the region of Asturias for the period 2009-2012. The outcomes show that university degrees do not make employability easier, in general, during the recent economic crisis. Moreover, vocational training increases the probability of getting a job for both genders, whereas the knowledge of English and French languages has a positive effect mainly in the case of women. Finally, unemployment benefits discourage unemployed from getting a new job, mainly for women.
