n Without Prejudice - Introduction : top students 2009 - where are they now

Abstract

The Class of 2009 entered the market when the general feeling was more optimistic than it had been at the beginning of their final year at university. However, the world has still not completely recovered from the economic crisis of 2008 and, while things might not look quite as bleak internationally, in South Africa there is far less optimism about a bright economic future than there has been in the past.
