According to a popular job portal, Singaporean graduates had a harder time finding a job this year.
Nearly 50 percent of Singaporean fresh graduates are taking as long as three months to land their first job.
In addition, about 30 percent of fresh graduates quit within a year. The biggest reasons cited were lack of personal growth, and desire for better pay.
These statistics were compiled by Monster.com, which surveyed over 500 graduates in Singapore.
Around two thirds of those surveyed also cited a lack of industry knowledge as their biggest challenge at work.
