This research was carried out in order to determine the relationships between employment and education for the period of 2005-2015 by using econometric methods. In this research, the variables were determined on a monthly basis for the period of 2005-2015. Data acquired from the research was analyzed with E-Views 8.0 program. Descriptive statistics, histogram analysis, graphic analysis, Chow Breakpoint test, Unit root test, Correlation analysis, Granger causality, Co-Integration tests were applied during the research. At the end of the study, it was found that primary education level remained the same, even regressed for some amount over the years; however secondary and higher education levels increased gradually. It was determined that employment level increased gradually for the period of 2005-2015 in a low ratio; however it started to regress for the last five years and there was a median level relationship between employment and education levels in the period between 2005 and 2015. Furthermore, it was found that primary, secondary and higher education levels were the reason of employment level. It can be said that education level is a determinant factor in employment. Moreover, it was stated that primary, secondary and higher education levels were related with employment levels in long term. It can be implied that the education level required by certain occupational groups or work areas may be sufficient for long-term employment while in some employment areas, as a result of developing and changing working conditions, it is compulsory to enhance education level (quality and knowledge required by the job) and this causes permanent employment in terms of labor force or vertical mobility which can be named as promotion. In addition, it was found in the research that there was a positive relationship between primary, secondary and higher education levels and employment level, and that relationship was in favor of higher education level.
