Enterprise Minister, Laurence Skelly MHK, is praising the success of the Island's inaugural graduate fair held in Douglas last week.

The event - which took place at Woodbourne House on April 17 - showcased job opportunities available to Manx students moving or returning to the Island.

Mr Skelly says the occasion 'brought to life' the variety of options the number of vacancies on offer to graduates.

Along with keynote speakers from the local economy, those who attended got the chance to learn how to hone their employability skills and take part in networking sessions with leading business figures.
