What are the challenges for the current generation of graduate
millennials? The role of universities and the changing nature of
the graduate labour market are constantly in the news, but less is
known about the experiences of those going through it. This new
book traces the transition to the graduate labour market of a
cohort of middle-class and working-class young people who were
tracked through seven years of their undergraduate and
post-graduation lives. Using personal stories and voices, the book
provides fascinating insights into the group's experience of
graduate employment and how their life-course transitions are
shaped by their social backgrounds and education. Critically
evaluating current government and university policies, it shows the
attitudes and values of this generation towards their hopes and
aspirations on employment, political attitudes and cultural
practices.
