Abstract

The objective of the study was to investigate the perception of success of the graduates of the Administration course at the Federal University of Pampa (UNIPAMPA). With specific objectives, it is intended to: a) analyze the critical factors in the university-labor market transition; b) understand the concept of success in the view of graduates; c) verify the relevance of objective and subjective success factors for graduates; d) evaluate the current career scenario of graduates. As a method, an exploratory research with a qualitative approach was adopted, based on a narrative study at the Federal University of Pampa (UNIPAMPA). Between 2015 and 2019, ten graduates from the management career were interviewed, one from each semester. As a method of analysis, content analysis was chosen (BARDIN, 2010). The results obtained revealed that the perception of success of graduates is linked to the balance between objective and subjective success factors, the most perceived objective factors for success by graduates were promotions and salaries and the most perceived subjective factors for success were feelings of personal fulfillment and satisfaction.
