This article analyzes the personal and financial investments, as well as the agreements made by young people, from basic education to higher education, in order to guarantee access to employment and, consequently, a change of position in the current social structure. The methodological path adopted brought together research methods, techniques and instruments in an approach that articulates quantitative data (monitoring of trajectories in loco) and qualitative data, from different data sources that inform educational and labor data in Brazil. The first investments and arrangements made to obtain this job focused on the efforts of these young people to complete secondary school, followed by professional qualification courses and, finally, access to private higher education. The relationship between work and education occupies a central place in the trajectories investigated. Through the routes analyzed, it was found that there is a strong discourse in favor of education as if be, if not the only, the main strategy of upward social mobility.
