“In the past, self-employment or freelancing were only considered options by more experienced professionals.
The latest generation don’t see this as a barrier.
Thanks to the changing job market and developments in technology, graduates can enjoy greater independence.
They no longer need to follow conventional routes into employment if it doesn’t suit them. However, they could
still benefit from more support, and universities have an important role to play in supplying this.”
