‘School leavers need a proactive approach’
GRADUATES and school leavers must look at their attitude and take a proactive approach to finding a job, according to employers.
More than 50 employers, politicians and educators attended the event yesterday, which looked at the current state of the job market for young people.
Lifelong learning manager Alun Williams (pictured) said they had been expecting only a dozen people.
‘It shows the interest and concern among employers about the current climate.’
Pro Vice Chancellor of the University of Winchester, Christopher Turner, spoke to the audience about how degrees were still important in giving graduates the skills they needed for work.
Then Mr Williams asked employers what they felt about the current job market.
Many had seen a sharp rise in the number of graduates applying for jobs.
Butterfield Bank head of personnel services Kim Spaargaren said there was strong competition for the jobs available.
