| Resum: | Young people in southern European countries experience particularly difficult transitions between training and employment. In these countries, leaving aside training and work experience, the support of personal networks-which can be conceptualized as social capital-is particularly important in young people's access to employment. The article's objective is to identify the extent to which bonding, bridging and linking social capital play a similar role in precarious employment transitions to that described in the literature for more general labour market transitions. To study this role, the article explores data on the labour market trajectory and the mobilization of social connections of young people in Spain, collected by means of a hybrid questionnaire. A set of multilevel logistic regressions is applied to these data, taking the type of contract as a dependent variable. The results show that bridging and linking social capital are useful for avoiding the most precarious employment situation in the careers analysed (informal employment), but they are not associated with stable employment. Furthermore, when the distinction between hierarchical and non-hierarchical bonding social capital is introduced, the results show that only hierarchical bonding (i. e. vertical ties) is negatively associated to the most precarious employment. |
