The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) reports that approximately 50% of college hires leave their first job within the first two years.
Other studies suggest that 20-30% of college graduates leave their jobs within the first year, often due to dissatisfaction with the job fit, lack of growth opportunities, or organizational culture misalignment.
Gallup has reported that only about 39% of recent college graduates feel engaged at work, which contributes to turnover.
SHRM estimates that high turnover costs employers 1X - 2X each early career hire's total compensation in lost productivity, talent acquisition and onboarding.
Job Ready is the EFFA bi-weekly podcast, hosted by our CEO, Charlie Nguyen, our Chief Purpose Officer, Jeff Nelder, and Emmy-award winning Executive Producer James Oliverio - dedicated to the issues that universities, their students and the employers who hire them face around creating job readiness within the next generation of the US workforce.
