The problem

Graduate jobs have never been harder to get.

  • 140applications for every graduate job. A record high.
    Student AssistSee the roles your own evidence already fits, so you apply where you stand out.
  • −8%fewer graduate hires by ISE employers than the year before.
    Student AssistFewer places means no room for guessing: a plan that closes the exact gaps employers ask for.
  • 1 in 4employed graduates aren't in a high-skilled job 15 months after graduating.
    Student AssistEvery role is marked when it counts as professional work, before you spend weeks on it.

Sources: Institute of Student Employers, Student Recruitment Survey 2025 (140 applications per vacancy, p.11; graduate hires down 8%, or 4% excluding three outliers); HESA Graduate Outcomes 2022/23 (76% of employed graduates in high-skilled work).

For universities

See how your course lands before Graduate Outcomes tells you.

The OfS B3 progression measure counts graduates in professional work, SOC 2020 groups 1 to 3. Student Assist shows how many of a course's students are on track for it now, while there is still time to help, and which skills the course could help them show.
