With the Guardian link this time!

 

Hello everyone

 

The annual report on the graduate recruitment market from High Fliers is available now http://www.highfliers.co.uk/download/GMReport13.pdf

 

It’s a very tough market.

 

And an interesting article in the Guardian about extra curricular activities needing to be co-curricular. http://www.guardian.co.uk/higher-education-network/blog/2013/jan/22/student-development-university-curriculum-design 

It’s something I have argued here and am really glad to see this. I want to raise the level of the crowd rather than simply encourage those who already stand out from it to move even further away.

 

Best wishes

Ruth
