The table illustrates the proportion of employment of graduates from four nations in the UK in 2001.
Overall, it was true that the share of graduate students looking for jobs in foreign countries constituted the least among the three categories, whereas contemporary work was more prevailing. Additionally, Scotland was ranked in the first position, with the most post-graduates whose jobs; in contrast, Northern Ireland had the lowest rate.
Notably, students were not engaged in seeking overseas job opportunities. While in Scotland, England, and Wales, only squarely above 2% of graduates worked outside their countries, the percentage in Northern Ireland was considerably higher, at 5%. Moreover, they tended to prospect for long-term occupation, with regard to approximately 30% in England and 33% in Wales. There were 43.6% of Scottish bachelors having secure jobs, which was the highest figure compared to Northern Ireland, with only 20% of stable work for graduates.
It can be seen from the database that barring contemporary positions, part-time jobs were a popular consideration for youngsters after graduating. England had the greatest ratio of insecure jobs, with 23% in total, followed by Scotland with 20.2%. In contrast, Northern Ireland continued to rank last, making up 8.6% and a bit more modest than the percentage in Wales, at 12.4%. In conclusion, Scotland was the country that possessed the most considerable employment rates for bachelors, which was twice as much as in Northern Ireland with 33.6%. Besides, 58.3% of occupational chances were in England, placing it in the second position, followed by Wales with 58.35% in general.
