An ad which is currently on the front page of Bored of Studies. Really skeptical. Says they use QILT as a source for this claim.
I recommend researching QILT, it is a government run organisation, so they can be trusted to be reliable. You also have to consider what those statistics mean. First, you need to understand what type of employment it measures - is it any form of employment or industry relevant? Also consider the types of courses those universities offer and how it correlates to employability. I contracted for a small private college who provided degrees in Hotel Management - over 90% of their students scored industry relevant employment upon graduation. The reason for this was due to their education model which had significant practical components in addition to a requirement for students to complete two industry placements. The college was held in extremely high regard by industry due to the style of training and students had formed the networks needed to secure roles upon graduation. Other universities offering degrees in hotel management do not offer these things. Also, the high rate of employment for this college's graduates was due to the high turnover nature of the hotel industry.
The point Im trying to make is that you need to consider the broader meaning behind those figures. However, I will say this, I have worked in HR with a variety of public and private sector organisations and university prestige has ZERO impact on your employability outside MBB, Law and IB (even those industries are shifting focus).
