Do Russell Group graduates have an edge?

The international recruitment agency Universum has said that Russell Group graduates have an edge because they are more likely to have done an internship, with 44% of Russell Group students taking part in internship programmes in the UK and 20% abroad. The figure was 30% among non-Russell Group students. However, their research report said: “We expect this difference may close over time as more and more universities incorporate work and internship programmes into their curriculums to help their students gain real-world, relevant experience in their chosen careers.”
