Leaving the country to find a job? That might increase young people’s chances of finding a decent job.

In 2023, 83.5% of recent graduates in the EU were employed, marking an increase of 1.1% compared with 2022 (82.4%). Recent graduates are individuals aged 20-34, who completed their studies within the past 1 to 3 years at medium or tertiary education levels.

The overall employment rate of recent graduates was 80% or higher in 22 EU countries. Malta led with 95.8%, followed by the Netherlands (93.2%) and Germany (91.5%).

The lowest employment rates were recorded in Italy (67.5%), Greece (72.3%) and Romania (74.8%).

Have you ever thought about moving to another country for better job opportunities? Or have you already done so?

    Exactly. Does “driving an Uber” or “working at McD” count as a proper job for a graduate?
