WBS Graduates Most Employable :: Guardian Poll says
Latest press releasesAccording to a survey published in the Guardian newspaper today, graduates of Warwick Business School are considered to be the most employable - by a large margin.
Warwick topped the list with 28 'employability points', their closest rivals Leeds and Nottingham scored 18 with Oxford and Cambridge achieving just 12 points.
This listing follows a survey of over 220 recruiters who were asked to vote on whether graduates from each university were above or below average employability. The survey also attempted to judge how well a university does with the raw materials it is given using a measure based upon the difference between their expected entry requirements and the subsequent employability of their graduates as voted on by the recruiters.
"Such a result is most encouraging." Said Professor Howard Thomas, Dean of Warwick Business School. "Many of our students come to us in order to effect a step change in their career and the more employable they are, the better are their chances of achieving this. I am also very proud on behalf of my staff as the quality of the Warwick experience must have contributed to this excellent result."
