Almost a quarter of university leavers who apply for graduate jobs manage to secure a role, according to new research. The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) conducted a study which found that 24.4 per cent of US graduates landed a job after submitting applications. This figure represented a considerable improvement from the same NACE study 12 months earlier, which suggested that only 19.7 per cent had achieved this goal. In addition, the latest 'Student Survey' revealed that graduates with business and technology degrees are most likely to secure a full-time job after university. "These graduates were also more likely to have actually applied for a job, according to the survey's results," said NACE executive director Marilyn Mackes. The study also showed that 27.4 per cent of respondents are planning to head into higher education, compared with the figure of 25.6 per cent from the 2009 findings. Meanwhile, investment banking firm Numis revealed last week that it is delighted with the results of its first London-based graduate recruitment programme.
