Melbourne Law School has taken a step in this direction by this week releasing the results of surveys of the classes of 2013 and 2014. We have a detailed breakdown of the percentage of graduates in different types of employment and a long list of the various employers for whom they work.

The most recent survey of Melbourne Law School graduates shows particularly strong results with 98 per cent employment and 73 per cent of those employed working as a legal graduate (trainee, barrister, solicitor or judge's associate) and most of the rest in good graduate roles or employed in other legal roles.
