Abstract:
Increasing graduate employment in SMEs is a challenge in many sub-Saharan countries. This study analyzes career prospects of undergraduates in Uganda by establishing which job attributes predict overall attraction to SMEs and MNCs by gender. The study utilized a systematic sample of under graduates to rate 17 job attributes. SMEs are rated poorly on all attributes compared to MNCs.
