The amount of graduates recruited by companies could be set for a sharp year-on-year rise, according to a survey of recruiters by a London law firm. A report by Speechly Bircham and King's College London HRM Learning Board suggested that 19 per cent of employers were hoping for an increase in graduate recruitment in 2010, compared with just 7 per cent who expressed that sentiment last year. Nearly half of respondents in the survey said they expected some increase in workforce size in 2010, in another encouraging find. The report also suggested that staff turnover is set to rise in the next few months due to unhappy workers "voting with their feet" and leaving their current employment, which could potentially open the door to graduates. An employment partner at Speechly Bircham Richard Martin said: "Our survey shows the majority of employers are expecting a gradual move towards calmer economic waters where the onus is less on cost saving and more on re-engaging with staff."
