Abstract
In this report, we discuss the results of our randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a nationwide mentoring program designed to improve the labor-market prospects of disadvantaged adolescents in Germany (Resnjanskij et al., 2023).

In particular, the school-to-work transition is a decisive moment that determines the differences in later labor-market outcomes of young adolescents.
