For 9 in 10 graduates of tertiary education, their job corresponds to their education

Neuchâtel, 10.02.2022 - One year after graduation, according to their own self-assessment, 93% of tertiary education graduates were employed in a job that matched their level of education or the professional qualifications acquired during their studies. In addition to the type of diploma obtained, the time of starting the job and the number of vacancies in the region also played a role. These are some of the findings from the topic report of the Federal Statistical Office (FSO) on the mismatch between education and employment.
