In the context of university massification, the labor market insertion of graduates is an unavoidable topic in higher education. This article analyzes the professional integration practices of students who graduated from massive private universities in Chile from the perspective of institutional actors. Three massive universities were chosen as case studies, characterized by means of secondary statistical sources and interviews with institutional actors, in which we could identify four dimensions of the processes of integration into the labor market: follow-up of their graduates, support for labor market insertion, training in soft skills and fostering a sense of belonging.

Keywords : mass education; labor market; employment; graduates; private education; Chile.
