Published Figures highlight Graduate job market worries
Out-of-work graduates are facing a bleak future according to research published today. The Office of National Statistics published ‘Graduates in the Labour Market 2012’ which outlined that a growing number of graduates are now employed in lower skilled jobs than over a decade ago. The figures released today highlight that 21.7% of graduates are employed in ‘blue collar’ jobs. However whilst the graduate opportunities are not as good as they used to be, employment prospects are still better for graduates than for those without a degree.
