Making the most of opportunity:
Findings from the 2023 Red & Yellow Employability Report
Youth unemployment in South Africa has reached a staggering 49.4% in 2024, and has increased by 3.3%. It’s a harsh reality for young people who are looking to make a living and build a fulfilling career.
Our latest Employability Report finds that Red & Yellow students are benefiting from even more opportunity. 94% of our graduates find work within six months of graduating, up from 93% in the previous year.
The Report finds that students chose to study at Red & Yellow because of our institution’s reputation and job opportunities available after graduation, followed by our curriculum strength and how we meet the challenges of the job market.
“Employability encompasses a blend of skills, knowledge, and personal qualities that increase graduates’ chances of securing employment and thriving in their careers. This means not only being an asset to their employer from day one but also possessing the qualities needed to succeed as a freelancer or entrepreneur. Our blend of Creative Magic and Commercial is a cornerstone of everything we teach. From workplace learning to our extensive industry network, we’ve made sure to give our students every opportunity to build their career and land a fulfilling job.”
