Graduate employment spin? Why MOM’s June snapshot raises more questions than it answers
['The Online Citizen']
The Online Citizen
Here’s what the official record says:The Graduate Employment Survey (GES) is jointly conducted by NTU, NUS, SMU, SIT, SUTD, and SUSS.
In short: the public release of graduate employment outcomes typically happens between January and March of the year after graduation, depending on the institution.
The June 2025 numbers presented by MOM therefore do not fit the established GES cycle.
Labour Market Reports Paint a Different PictureWhen placed alongside MOM’s Labour Market Reports, the contradictions grow:1Q 2025: total employment growth slowed to +2,400 (residents +300).
Methodological shiftThe June snapshot has never been part of official graduate employment reporting.
