Scottish Government statistics show 56% of those who graduated in 2011 are in permanent jobs, 8.9% are in temporary jobs, 19% are in further study or training, 5% are working abroad and 5.9% are unemployed. However, only three-quarters of those who found work are in graduate level jobs with the remaining 26% in a job for which no degree is necessary.
