Job applications 'filtered by university ranking'

Graduates of 24 top UK universities are more likely to find work soon after graduating than those from other universities, research says.

Four-fifths of Russell Group graduates entered full-time work within weeks of leaving, compared with two-thirds of those from other institutions, a survey for graduate recruiter Milkround found (based on a survey of 1,500 graduates).

Dr Jack Britton, at the Institute for Fiscal Studies, found that in 2017 Russell Group graduates earned an average of £33,500 after five years - about 40% more than those who had studied at other universities. But Dr Britton said much of this could be attributed to the abilities and interests of the graduates themselves rather than the quality of their universities.

In November last year a study from Department for Education and Institute for Fiscal Studies found that women with a degree earn on average 28% more than non-graduate women.

The study also found men with degrees earn an average of 8% more than non-graduates.

Do you think the same would be true for those graduates that return to Hong Kong?
