Full employment for HKU graduates for a fourth consecutive year - HKU to announce the results of its Graduate Employment Survey 2009

13 Apr 2010

The University of Hong Kong (HKU) Centre of Development and Resources for Students will hold a press conference on April 15, 2010 (Thursday) on its Graduate Employment Survey 2009.  With the pace of economic recovery gradually gaining momentum, full employment for HKU graduates was recorded for a fourth year.

Up to 99.8% of the HKU graduates interviewed were able to secure a job by November 2009, which reflects a continuing buoyant employment market for the University's graduates in the first three quarters of 2009. Compared with the graduates of 2008, more students opted for further studies, and more graduates chose to work with the civil service and the education sector, probably for a more stable working environment.

Media are cordially invited to the press conference, details are:

Date:        April 15, 2010 (Thursday)
Time:         2:00pm
Venue:      Council Chamber, 8/F, Meng Wah Complex, HKU
