Hult International Business School: Survey On Graduate Skills Gap
The Overview
Hult International Business School wanted to highlight new research they’d conducted showing the widening disconnect between traditional undergraduate education and workplace readiness. BlueSky Education worked with Hult to shape the data into a compelling press release that spoke directly to the frustrations of both employers and graduates.
The release focused on the most striking headline figures, such as 89% of HR leaders avoiding hiring recent graduates and 77% of graduates saying they learned more in six months on the job than in their entire degree. By leading with data that was both newsworthy and easy to visualise, the story was made highly relevant to HR, business, and mainstream media outlets.
