According to new research from job search engine Adzuna, the class of 2015 graduates have 16 percent more jobs to choose from than last year, although advertised salaries have fallen to their lowest in ten months
This year’s flood of graduates will have significantly more positions to choose from than last year’s university leavers, which has helped lift the number of total available vacancies to a new post-recession record, according to the latest UK Job Market Report from Adzuna.
Nationwide there were 15,825 graduate-specific advertised vacancies in May 2015, up 16.3 percent on the 13,610 available a year ago, contributing significantly to the simultaneous rise in the total number of advertised positions across the UK. Last month saw 1,058,425 available advertised positions, 2.4 percent above the 1,033,435 recorded in April and 29.3 percent above the 818,471 recorded in May 2014.
