From MBA to ILM

A quarter of us 'are fed up with our jobs'

One in four workers is fed up with their job, research reveals today. They complain of long hours, poor pay and too many responsibilities.

The biggest bugbear is 'increased workload' with bosses making them perform more duties without promoting them or paying them more.

‘Top employers hire fewer women graduates’

This was the headline in an article written by Nicola Woolcock of ‘The Times’ dated January 31st 2008.

She continued: ‘The proportion of women recruited by leading companies fell last year despite an increasing majority of university graduates being women. A report by the Association of Graduate Recruiters based on information from 200 of the country’s top employers, shows that 39% of fast tack graduate recruits were female compared with 42.6% in 2006. Women now account for 57% of all graduates from British Universities.
