Whether you’ve just finished a degree and want to get your foot on the career ladder, or you’re simply planning for the year ahead – and your upcoming graduation – knowing which employers are popular amongst graduates is a good stepping stone to getting you started.

Take a look at the following list:

Civil Service
PwC
Deloitte
NHS

KPMG
Teach First
BBC
JP Morgan
GSK
EY

Now, a lot of these names you probably already know or recognise, however some will require more research if you are open to applying for any job.

The more you research and explore your job options, the more choices you will have overall, especially should you choose to undertake more studies such as an online course.
