The survey comes as the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (Dius) begins a new "graduate talent pool" as part of its internshipprogramme.
Of those who have completed the Youth Adult InternshipProgramme, so far, at least half have found work, are back in school or are continuing further training.
Following criticism last year, the Liberal Democrats changed their internshipprogramme so it now pays the minimum wage, although some Lib Dem MPs, and MPs from other parties, still advertise internships which pay expenses only.
