Maximizing Graduate Employability: Key Strategies for High-Fliers in 2011

In a competitive job market where only 1 in 83 students secure a graduate job, it is crucial for university graduates to enhance employability. With 300,000 graduates mainly achieving 2:1 degrees or higher, they must stand out. Opportunities for skill enhancement include studying or volunteering abroad, participating in modern language courses, and attending international conferences. Engage in workshops, gain work experience through part-time jobs, and earn awards like the KSCV. Join the Employability Points Scheme for over 200 rewards, including internships and training experiences.
