“2014 signals a boom in UK Graduate employment opportunities” claims Jason Staniforth – Digital Marketing Specialist for Vacancy Filler Recruitment Software.
“It has previously been understood that you go to university, graduate, and then enter the working world to become exactly what you studied for – the harsh reality is that this has not been the case for a number of years, and many graduates are finding out the hard way.
