The given table and charts compare and contrast data on different job situation of British graduates over a four-year period from 2007 to 2010, and the annual payments of the 2009/10 group in full-time employment.
At first glance, it is evident that degree holders prioritized working full-time after graduation. However, female graduates received lower income than male counterparts.
According to the table, little differentiation about employment options is obscured throughout the period. In specific, the largest category accounted for two-third of graduates who found full-time jobs, whereas less than 10% opted for a mix of part-time jobs and study. Approximately twice of this group chose to further their studies. Lastly, unemployed group ranged from 11 to 15%.
A more detailed look at the pie chart reveals that among those 2009/10 graduates who were employed in the UK, the majority earned between 15,000$ to 25,000$ per year. Moreover, over 30% of female graduates received about 20,000 to 25,000$, which was the largest proportion in the chart. However, as the job offers higher earning, men have a tendency to occupy for higher percentages. About one-fourth of the male group had a steady income of over 25,000$ compared to only 16% of the female counterparts. Noticeably, about 2% of men earned annual salary of 40,000$+, while not any individuals in the women group reached this level.
