In my experience, the graduate labour market is not as bad as many fear, and I really want this blog to help any students or graduates out there, who are concerned by the headlines, to feel a little bit better.
One of the biggest secrets of the current UK recession is that there is one sector which is booming. Strangely this sector is often perceived as at odds with economic growth, holding back industry and a luxury we can't afford with the nation's finances in a slump. This booming growth sector is the green economy.

This month's Office of National Statistics employment figures have offered positive, albeit tentative, signs of growth in the British labour market.

On Wednesday, politicians, journalists, youth workers and young people exchanged views at the Class of 2012 debate hosted by Channel 4 News and Channel 4's Battlefront on the subject of youth unemployment. Appropriately enough, the tag line for the first session was "The Lost Generation."
As William Shakespeare once said "Not even being able to afford your bus fare to the dole office is the great leveller" there is nothing quite like standing in the street claiming to be the owner of a yellow ticket in order to collect £27 to make you reconsider your chosen career path in the entertainment industry.

When I left school at 13, I didn't know my future would be in poetry - that's something that developed over time. Many other young people don't know what direction they want to steer their lives in and this is where I think Job Ready will really make a really big difference to lives.
