Graduate employment market



New data from Graduate Careers Australia sheds interesting light on the graduate employment sector.

2009 wasn’t a super year with the GFC affecting graduate recruitment intake. Only 79.2% of graduates were in full-time employment within four months of completing their degrees (down from 85.2%). Despite the downturn graduate salaries grew, with the median starting salary perched at $48,000 compared to $45,000 a year ago. Around 30% of employers have sourcing difficulty in certain disciplines.
