But Their Median Gross Monthly Salaries Increase By $100 In 2024
Less than half of fresh graduates from private education institutions found full-time jobs in 2024, amid slowing economic growth and lower hiring demand.
The latest Private Education Institution Graduate Employment Survey, released by SkillsFuture Singapore on April 26, showed that 46.4 per cent of fresh graduates found full-time work, compared with 58.7 per cent in 2023.
More of these graduates found part-time or temporary work (24.2 per cent, up from 18.9 per cent in 2023), while fewer were doing freelance work (4.2 per cent, down from 5.7 per cent in 2023).
Overall, of the 2,300 fresh graduates in the labour force—those who are working, or not working but actively looking and available for jobs—surveyed, 74.8 per cent found permanent, freelance or part-time jobs within six months of graduating, a drop from the 83.2 per cent in 2023.
