Labour market information (LMI) can help you to understand what is happening in the wider economic environment and the trends in employment. Graduate labour market information specifically focuses on graduate destinations, after leaving university, and predictions for what will happen in the labour market in the future. This is crucial in today’s rapidly changing environment, where new industries are being created, and the jobs of the future are yet to exist.
Labour market information can help you to:
- Understand the labour market locally, nationally, and internationally,
- Find out which sectors are thriving and declining
- Identify opportunities for employment in current and predicted growth sectors.
- Discover the skills that are in demand and that you’ll need to gain future employment
- Show employers that you have an understanding of the industry/sector in which they operate in
