The situation with regard to permanent jobs for graduates is also promising. However, MORE summer opportunities STILL are needed for undergraduates and permanent openings for graduates, especially for "Arts graduates" whose training has not fitted them for any particular industry, but who will react quickly to an employer‘s advantage after brief training on the job.
