[SINGAPORE] Professional services firms in Singapore are keeping graduate hiring steady – or even raising it – in 2025, defying broader concerns about a softening job market for fresh university graduates.
Big Four firm EY is looking to recruit about 500 fresh graduates this year, with roughly 75 per cent expected to come from Singapore’s autonomous universities.
The hiring figure marks a “steady increase over the years”, said Liew Nam Soon, EY Asean regional managing partner and Singapore country managing partner.
