This article examines the wage returns of young people and adults, considering the effect of education and experience. It is taken into account, especially, the point of view of human capital theory and its criticisms, to evaluate the relationship between education, experience and salary.

It is verified that for young people there is greater impact of acquire experience than education on the wage returns, which affects labor insertion and obtaining higher income.
