The given table and pie charts compare and contrast data on different job situations 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 the first-degree English holders prioritized working full-time after graduation during these four years. However, female graduates received lower income than male counterparts.
According to the table, little differentiation in employment options is obscured throughout the period. Specifically, the largest category accounted for two-thirds of graduates who found full-time jobs, whereas less than 10% opted for a mix of part-time jobs and study. Approximately twice this group chose to further their studies. Lastly, the 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 earnings, men have a tendency to occupy higher percentages. About one-fourth of the male group had a steady income of over $25,000 compared to only 16% of their female counterparts. Noticeably, about 2% of men earned an annual salary of $40,000+, while no individuals in the women group reached this level.
