High Fliers Research report “The Graduate Market in 2009” in the UK says many employers began scaling back their graduate recruitment up to 12 months ago, with the number of new graduates hired in 2008 almost 18% less than employers originally planned, leaving many of last year’s university-leavers without a graduate job. Report says employers will cut their 2009 intake of new graduates by 17% due to the continuing economic downturn.
