While the share of the #workforce who have degrees in US & UK is broadly similar, the 'graduate premium" in UK (outside #London) is much lower than across US.
Is this a demand or supply issue?
Given US & UK have relatively similar economies, we come back to the UK's #investment problem:
too little investment produces too few #graduate jobs, so many graduates work in jobs with no real degree requirement.
The UK needs to capitalise on its graduate much better.
