Abstract | A graduate level job is the driving force behind the majority of students. In tough economic times, this is increasingly difficult to achieve. This study highlights two distinct graduate internship programmes at two different London Universities to assist graduates secure graduate level employment. Comparative results are discussed with 405 interns, which created initially 60 jobs with anecdotal evidence of many more. Although the final argument is inconclusive, the positive affects, which internships have on graduate employability is discussed together with the benefits internships provide to business. A template for improving graduate employability is suggested. |
