The Managing Director of The RM Group, the largest independent company providing online business information and other information services to the business community, offers his views on the employability of young people emerging from university and the quality of training provided to ensure that they can cope with the requirements of modern business information. Concludes that students graduate with a lack of understanding of the commercial world and the practical restraints that this imposes on online and other information gathering techniques. The vital importance of information to company decision-making means that freshly graduated information professionals require extensive monitoring with 12–18 months needed for a graduate to have a full grasp of the research job and perhaps three years to understand the information industry in any depth. Outlines the importance of the Internet and the Web to business information providers. Concludes that it is up to the information industry to take fresh graduates, shape them, make them interested and retain not just the brightest but also those that are hardworking and committed.
