Post-Graduate Employment
The first part of this section of the report focuses specifically on the responses of those students who indicated they had obtained a full-time position. We then look briefly at information provided by those who said they were actively seeking but had not yet found a position, and finally at those who said they had not yet begun their job search.
Lists of companies/organizations for whom the students obtaining full-time employment will be working, as well as job titles, are available for individual colleges
here.
