Employment rate
The 2006 employment survey indicates that the 100% of NHH MSc graduates were in full-time employment or further studies six months after graduation. The results of the survey showed further that all those who had actively sought emplyment after graduation had successfully found a job within six months. The majority of these hd already received offers of employment before graduation from NHH. These figures reflect a continuing trend of high demand for NHH graduates in the market place.
Employment destinations
Banking and financial services is the largest destination for NHH graduates, followed by consulting and accounting. The consulting sector has grown in significance over the last years, as has the consumer goods sector. The chart below illustrates the main employment destinations for NHH graduates.
