The University of Hong Kong Graduate Employment Survey, 2012

( Bachelor’s Degrees )

I. Overall summary

The job market kept improving in 2012. The University of Hong Kong continued to achieve full employment in the class of 2012 graduates. This annual survey reported an income rise as the average gross monthly salary went up by 6.8% from $18,350 in 2011 to $19,598 in 2012. More graduates chose trading, marketing or retailing industries as their employment destination probably due to more job opportunities and better service conditions provided in these sectors. Over the years, Commerce and Industry sector has remained to be the largest employment sector. Civil Service sector has expanded while Education sector has shrunk since 2011.

II. Methodology

1. Every year, the Graduate Employment Survey is carried out to collect the employment details from our graduates about six months after their graduation, as an effort to gain understanding of their employment situation.

2. This annual survey was conducted from November 2012 to March 2013 via different

means. Email invitation to complete a web-based questionnaire was sent to graduates. During the academic gown collection period in November, the graduates were interviewed outside the gown collection counter. Those graduates who did not reply were interviewed on the telephone. Through the above means, information was obtained from 2782 graduates, representing 91.4% of the graduating population of 3044.

3. The situation reported by the respondents is as it was in December 2012 or six months after graduation and covers all full-time Bachelor's Degree graduates. Degree programmes are classified into ten Faculties, namely: Architecture, Arts, Business and Economics, Dentistry, Education, Engineering, Law, Medicine, Science and Social Sciences.

been successful in securing a job offer but declined to accept, or resigned from the post, to await better opportunities. Only six persons were unsuccessful in securing a job offer.
