The latest annual graduate employment surveys conducted by the universities and polytechnics show that fewer of their fresh graduates secured full-time employment in 2024.
SINGAPORE – Amid a challenging hiring outlook, the Government is watching the employment situation of fresh graduates closely, Ms Gan Siow Huang, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, and Trade and Industry, said on July 9.

The institutes of higher learning are stepping up to help graduates having difficulties in their job search, she said. This includes providing career coaching, networking opportunities and upskilling courses, and organising career fairs.

Ms Gan was speaking to the media after an engagement session at Republic Polytechnic with about 20 fresh graduates and final-year students from the five polytechnics in Singapore.

The latest annual graduate employment surveys conducted by the universities and polytechnics show that fewer of their fresh graduates secured full-time employment in 2024.

For fresh graduates from the universities, 79.5 per cent of them secured full-time jobs in 2024, down from 84.1 per cent in 2023.

Employment outcomes for polytechnic graduates also declined, with 54.6 per cent of them in full-time permanent jobs in 2024, down from about 60 per cent in 2023.

Ms Gan said that by and large, the Singapore economy is still resilient, even though graduates are facing a tough job market due to both cyclical and structural factors, such as artificial intelligence (AI) impacting the availability of jobs.

GKY loves to Talk Cock like this previous boss. The best recommendation and support for Singaporeans is to built a Singapore core work place. Block all foreign quotas at the airport.

LOL. With the PAP regime giving out citizenship like candy to kids, do you honestly think 'Singapore core' has any meaning now?
