The pie chart illustrates six distinct career options that anthropology undergraduates pursued after completing their degree programs. The accompanying table presents the salaries of anthropologists who have been employed for five years, with wages measured in dollars and job categories expressed as percentages.
Overall, it is evident that the majority of graduates, specifically over half, secured full-time positions after university. Furthermore, it is clear that the proportion of anthropologists earning higher incomes significantly exceeds the percentage of those in lower income brackets after five years in the workforce.
Firstly, it is observed that 52% of graduates obtained full-time jobs, 15% found part-time work, and 12% were unable to secure employment. Meanwhile, the employment status of 8% remains unknown, another 8% are engaged in full-time postgraduate studies, and only 5% work part-time while pursuing postgraduate courses.
Secondly, an overwhelming majority of freelance consultants, specifically 80%, earn over $75,000, with half of them making more than $100,000. Additionally, 80% of those working in the government sector also earn $75,000 or more, with 50% of them receiving more than $100,000. In contrast, the percentage of individuals in the private sector who earn higher wages decreases to 55%, and only 30% of these employees make over $100,000 after five years in their positions.
