The given pie chart illustrates the distribution of employment choices among graduates from Brighton University in 2019, showing the percentage of alumni who pursued careers in various sectors after graduation.
Overall, the most popular sectors for employment are services, manufacturing, education, and politics/government, while sectors such as transportation, sport, science, charity, civil services, and others attract significantly fewer graduates.
The most prominent feature of the chart is the high proportion of graduates (33.0%) who sought employment in the service industry. This is by far the largest sector. The manufacturing industry follows with 16.3%, while education and politics/government employ 14.7% and 12.1% of graduates, respectively. Together, these four sectors account for just over three-quarters of the total graduate employment.
In contrast, the remaining six sectors, which include transportation, sport, science, charity, civil services, and others, collectively make up less than a quarter of the total. Notably, sport and charity are the least popular, attracting less than 1% of graduates combined.
