description We employ a network based approach to explore occupational mobility of the Romanian university graduates in the first years after graduation. This representation of data permits us to use the novel statistical techniques developed in the framework of weighted directed networks in order to extract a set of stylized facts that highlight patterns of occupational mobility: centrality, degree and network density. We find that the gender plays a significant role in shaping the patterns of occupational mobility.
