Graduates urged to look local for best chance at jobs

Graduates are advised to seek local opportunities for better job prospects, as the competition for graduate roles in the UK is currently at a record high. While major cities may have fewer positions available, smaller regional companies are facing a skills shortage in various sectors due to a lack of applicants. Therefore, graduates are encouraged to explore opportunities with lesser-known but promising employers to secure roles in growing sectors like creative industries, business, and technology.
