The survey charted the employment situation and job placement of persons who had graduated with a bachelor's degree from the University of Tampere in 2012. The survey was divided into four different parts; education history, current employment status and employment history, factors affecting employment, and happiness with the employment situation and the degree programmes at the University of Tampere. The survey was sent to those graduates who had received 10 credits (ECTS) or less in the year following their graduation. The first part of the survey studied the respondents' current education and their plans for education in the future. The second part of the survey charted the current employment and the employment history of the respondents. This included questions about the type and length of current employment and the type of employment the participants had had during their studies. The third part of the survey charted which factors had been the most important in obtaining their current job and which factors may have hindered or prevented them from finding a job. The participants were also asked about the channels they used when looking for work. In the fourth part of the survey, the respondents were asked about their happiness with their current employment situation, their view on how their job corresponded with their education, and what advantages having a bachelor's degree had given them in the labour market. The respondents were also asked about their satisfaction with the degree programmes at the University of Tampere. The survey also investigated their views on whether their education had provided them with useful skills and abilities (e.g. information seeking skills, social skills, language skills, skills related to the field of study) that were relevant in working life.

The program implements standardized surveys to gather information on the supply and distribution of skills and the demand for skills in labor market of low-income countries.

The uniquely designed modules in the Employer Survey aim to assess the structure of the labor force; the skills (cognitive skills, behavior and personality traits, and job-relevant skills) currently being used; the skills that employers look for when hiring new workers; the propensity of firms to provide training (including satisfaction with education, training, and levels of specific skills) and the link between skills and compensation and promotion. The survey also captures background characteristics (size, legal form, industry, full time vs. non-standard employment and occupational breakdown), performance (revenues, wages and other costs, profits and scope of market), key labor market challenges and their ranking relative to other challenges, and job skill requirements of the firms being interviewed.

The questionnaire can be adapted to address a sample of firms in both informal and formal sectors, with varying sizes and industry classifications.

Cleaning operations

STEP Data Management Process:

1) Raw data is sent by the survey firm.

2) The World Bank (WB) STEP team runs data checks on the Questionnaire data. Comments and questions are sent back to the survey firm.

3) The survey firm reviews comments and questions. When a data entry error is identified, the survey firm corrects the data.

4) The WB STEP team again check to make sure the data files are clean. This might require additional iterations with the survey firm.

5) Once the data has been checked and cleaned, the WB STEP team computes the weights. Weights are computed by the STEP team to ensure consistency across sampling methodologies.
