Over 1/4 of Malaysian degree holders have jobs unrelated to their qualifications
KUALA LUMPUR: Over a quarter of degree holders in Malaysia are working in jobs that do not match their qualifications, according to the World Bank.
In its Malaysia Economic Monitor report released this week, the World Bank emphasised that many graduates face challenges in securing high-skilled employment.
The report noted that 26.9 per cent of graduates in 2022 were underutilising their skills, a significant increase from 8.6 per cent in 2010.
