Women graduates are weathering the financial storm more successfully than their male counterparts, a survey said yesterday. Around one in 10 men who graduated last summer have not found employment, while only 6.5 per cent of women are unemployed. Around 10,000 male graduates have couldn’t find work in the six months after they left university, 56 per cent more than last year.
