The chart shows the proportion of graduates from Bluesky University in 2006 entering different employment sectors.
SAMPLE ANSWER
The pie chart illustrates the career choices of Bluesky University’s 2006, giving the percentages who worked in each of various sectors after finishing university. Overwhelming, industry and government were the most popular choices.
Just under half the students went into industry, with service industries attracting more Bluesky graduates than any other sector by far-almost a third (33.0%). About half that number (16.3%) took jobs in manufacturing. Politics and public services were the next most popular choice, accounting for nearly a fifth of graduates. Just over 12% went into politics and a further 5.6% chose the civil service.
The other significant career choices were education (about 15%) and two others: the arts, entertainment and media, with 7.8%; and science and technology with 7.3%.
The least popular choices included work in the charitable sector and careers in sport, both of which were chosen by well under 1% of graduates. Finally, 2.8% entered work in other, unspecified, sectors.
