Statistical analysis of data revealed that adaptation of Saudi youth in the Transformation Program jobs was moderate, M=3.36. With reference to individual dimensions, personal and social adaptation of Saudi youth proved to be high, whereas their economic and occupational adaptation proved to be moderate. Participants highly agreed to all items of barriers to adaptation.
