Thank you for your support this season.
Please let me know if there is any way in which we may be able to help and support your students’ preparation for and, critically, transition into meaningful careers.
I remain slightly more sanguine than most about the job prospects for today’s undergraduates, but the jobs market for today’s new graduates will be unprecedentedly challenging. They’ll need all the help and support we can muster.
Thanks and best wishes
