EDUCATION Good prospects for new graduates
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.This year's crop of university graduates have better prospects of landing a job than those in any year since 1990, according to an annual report by Income Data Services. It forecasts that the demand for graduates will continue to increase at a rate not seen for a decade and that median salaries for graduate recruits will rise from pounds 15,000 to pounds 15,442.
However, it cautions: "A return to 1980s levels of demand is not all good news, as the survey also registered the first signs of a return to the types of labour market shortages that characterised the previous decade."
