Abstract
Job insecurity and precariousness lead Young Italian people to stop in their paths of life
and life plan. The efect is to lead them in a spiral of marginality and demotivation typical of NEETs (young people who do not work, do not study and are not in a period training), with a serious impairment of the quality of life. The aim of this work is to show the
impact of the occupational condition on the well-being of young people, both from a static
and dynamic point of view, by using the database of the “Rapporto Giovani” longitudinal
survey, a representative sample of Young Italian people. The entrance and the exit from
the NEET condition have a signifcant impact on well-being and quality of life of Young
Italian People. The Life Satisfaction acts not only as an efect of the change of occupational
status, but also as a predictor. Finally, a new project, LikeYouth, is presented. It aims at
improving the current understanding of the conditions in which young Italians fnd themselves during the acquisition of autonomy and in the active job search via Social Media
Data, by using a new Facebook application, LikeYouth, that gathers information regarding
Facebook profles and Likes on Facebook Pages of each user
