Career prospects for those 34 and younger are much worse as they have graduated into the worst UK economy in living memory.

Co-founder of Peakon, Dan Rogers explained how crucial the start of a career is and how the economy is important to that: “The first ten years of employment are the most crucial in defining career success. During this time, young workers experience 70% of their total salary growth, have the opportunity to move jobs, gain vital experience, and cement a career path. With a weak economy, you are robbed of this opportunity.”
