Measuring Up: Benchmarking Graduate Retention.

摘要

Despite turbulence in the marketplace, employer confidence in the value of recruiting and retaining graduates remains high. This report presents findings which offer a wider and more inclusive range of benchmark data than previously gathered from UK employers regarding graduate retention rates. The research focused on a key element (retention) of a model known as the Institute Employment Studies (IES) Graduate Value Chain, and was sponsored by the IES Research Networks. As the graduate labour market continues to grow and diversify, the research explored the basis for what is termed the War for Talent. The findings are based on survey data collected from 362 organizations, 36 interviews with employers and their graduates, and draws on existing research.
