The article discusses the problem of the relationship of hope for success with the effectiveness of school-to-work transition. 73 graduates (41 women and 32 men) participated in the repeated measure study. The average age of the subjects was M = 24.72; SD = 0.88. The Hope for Success Questionnaire was used. People having jobs at various transition stages demonstrate a higher level of hope for success. Changes in the level of hope at individual stages of transition were also observed. In addition, the level of hope at the preparation stage allows for anticipating employment six months after graduation.
