Companies are looking for the most recent graduates in the fields of engineering and finance
Although the opportunities for career starters with a higher education have narrowed somewhat compared to last August, there are still a number of areas that stand out, where the masses of fresh graduates are welcomed with open arms, and in the field of engineering, wages are still outstanding.

The members of the Z, Y and X generations participating in the research all agreed that it is the easiest for the youngest to find a job, and that they have the most opportunities.
