UBC Sauder Alumni Job Data
Get exclusive access to UBC Sauder alumni job data
Want to learn more about what UBC Sauder alumni do after graduation?
All BCom students and recent alumni are provided exclusive access to the Sauder Employment Analytics Tool (SEAT), which provides invaluable information about jobs UBC Sauder students have landed up to 6 months after graduation.
You can use this information to make career decisions, guide your job search, and negotiate your salary. SEAT offers information on:

- Sources used to find jobs in specific industries (e.g., BCC/UBC Facilitated Events, COOL job postings, etc.)
- Average base salaries
- Job offer trends
The data in SEAT comes directly from UBC Sauder grads. To give back and enrich this valuable resource for future BComs, please remember to share your post-graduation plans in SEAT when it's your turn to join the alumni community.

Along with UBC Sauder alumni job placement data, you can find job data in SEAT for business school graduates across Canada, the U.K., and the United States. This will help give you a broader perspective on the job market you're entering.
Where does SEAT data come from?
The alumni job data comes directly from UBC Sauder graduates within 6 months of graduation.
All UBC Sauder graduates, including MBAs and Master of Business Analytics grads, are asked to complete the SEAT survey within 6 months of finishing their program. This means you can also see details of where Masters-level UBC Sauder grads land in SEAT.
When it’s time for you to report your post-grad job placement data, you’ll be able to pay it forward and help future BComs with your job information.
All individual responses in SEAT are anonymous, kept confidential, and reported in aggregate form only.
How your information is used:
