Where are our graduates now?
Targeting students at university is a tradition among big graduate recruiters.
However, they still have 'target schools', universities where they particularly focus their effort.
Included in this group are Oxford, Cambridge, Warwick...
The majority of our graduates enter immediate employment with a small percentage continuing on to postgraduate study. More than half of employed graduates go into accountancy with most joining the Big Four. Others work in financial management in business organisations, with some in banking. Other graduates choose to use their generic skills - in analysis and problem solving - and their understanding of finance and business to enter other business functions. These include retail management, IT, human resources, and sales.
