Recent Graduates

    I'm just wondering, how long is someone considered to be a graduate after they graduate? I've heard it's 2 years, but I've seen employers saying they accept graduates as far back as 2006.

    I ask this as I have been travelling for 2 years since I graduated in 2007 and don't know if I should be applying for graduate roles. Thanks for any help.

    Graduate = not much experience after finishing your course & willing to accept a lower rate of pay.

    Put it this way, if you're not gonna apply for graduate roles, what are you going to apply for? CEO :-)

    Well it was a case of do I apply for jobs that require 0-1 years of experience or do I return and continue my studies. The latter being the route I would like to avoid.
