Abstract [eng] Unemployment is one of the pressing problems of the contemporary economy. Upon the acquisition of higher education, an individual can no longer be sure of getting a job. The current situation requires both a good understanding of the labour market needs and the trends of their changes and also the ability of planning, implementation, and management of one’s own personal career. The integration of a young individual into the labour market depends on a number of individual, social, and economic factors. Career designing is one of the factors conducive to professional success. Clear goals and specific objectives set for oneself, as well as an optimally planned and flexible system of their implementation, contribute to one’s competitiveness and advantages in the labour market. The issue of career design for young unemployed people with higher education is topical, as the quality of young people’s further life will depend on different career-related solutions. The paper presents the results of a survey, carried out in 2015, which discloses the views of young unemployed people with higher education on the career design factors. The case of the city of Klaipėda was analysed. Klaipėda is one of the major cities of Lithuania and an economic centre of the region of Western Lithuanian, specific in terms of employment and studies. The participants of the survey were 255 individuals registered with the Job Centre of the city of Klaipėda, aged 25 to 29, all with higher education. Those included people who have acquired higher University education (the bachelor’s degree), higher non-university education, and a small number of people with the master’s degree. The majority of the unemployed educated youth completed studies in the area of humanities and social sciences. An insignificant part of the survey participants graduated from study programmes in the area of biomedical, physical, and technology sciences. [...].
