The UK Graduate Careers Survey 2011 and The National Gradaute Recruitment Conference 2011

For the last eighteen years, High Fliers Research has been at the forefront of graduate recruitment research at the UK’s leading universities.

Our innovative annual study of more than 17,000 final year students, The UK Graduate Careers Survey, has now been used by 120 leading employers to review, assess and develop their campus recruitment campaigns. This extensive research is used each year to compile The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers — the careers directory that showcases Britain’s most sought–after organisations.

The UK Graduate Careers Survey 2011 was based on interviews with a record 17,851 final year students. The results were published on Wednesday 18th May and appeared in The Guardian, The Independent, Daily Telegraph, The Times, Personnel Today and on BBC News.

As well as its student research, High Fliers Research produces regular reports analysing the level of graduate vacancies and starting salaries available at the UK's top employers. Its latest research, The Graduate Market in 2012 included the encouraging news that graduate vacancies are set to increase again in 2012, the third consecutive year that recruitment has risen. The research was featured in The Independent, Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail, The Times, The Guardian, BBC News and in bulletins on BBC Radio and Breakfast on BBC1.

High Fliers Research published a special report on University Tuition Fees and the Graduates of 2011 on Wednesday 27th April 2011, which was featured in The Guardian, Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail, The Times, BBC News and the Times Higher Education Supplement.

In June 2011, Martin Birchall, Managing Director of High Fliers Research responded to new research which suggested that employers had received 83 applications per vacancy in The Independent and on Sky News. He also appeared on BBC Breakfast in a special report on university tuition fees and was interviewed for an edition of the Tonight programme on 'The Value of a Degree' on ITV1 in February 2011.
