چکیده
In the UK public policy in relation to the deployment of new graduates within SMEs has been running blind in terms of a sound evidence base. This paper reviews research on the recruitment of graduates within SMEs since 2002. Weaknesses remain both in relation to information about the SME graduate labour market as a whole and comparative evidence of the utilisation of graduates within SMEs. A shift in the research agenda is also noted, towards graduate enterprise and start-up. The paper concludes with research and policy implications.
