GRADUATES:
While a university degree does result in improved job and salary prospects, there is also a huge number of graduates not using the skills they acquired at university when they get a job.
Most Undergraduates who were employed full time following university, felt their qualification was important for their current employment but most of them in full-time and part-time jobs reported that their skills and education were not fully utilised.
ONE in three young university graduates do not find work in their chosen field, with many forced to cast their net wider to land full-time employment. For many, this means continuing in the industry they were in before their graduation.
Graduate résumés, with their newly listed degree(s) and educational achievements, usually displayed in reverse chronological order, need to get past multiple gatekeepers before it makes it into the hands of a hiring manager. At Résumé Masters we look at the job listings you’re interested in and identify the key terms and phrases that routinely pop up. Employers will value internship or work experience over the stuff you learned in the classroom. However, if you did not intern, we will include a list of any 400-level courses you took that are most closely tied to your job goals to show hiring managers what subjects you’re familiar with.
