Mike Hill, chief executive of Graduate Prospects says: "When we launched the Real Prospects survey, we wanted to paint a true picture of graduate working life, so it was vital that the study explored all areas of employment. The findings deliver great insight into which companies perform well in key areas, so if you're a student or graduate thinking about where you'd like to work it will help you to make more informed decisions."
