I finished my education now where's my job?
Thousands of graduating students are asking themselves this question.
Today’s graduating students need higher level relational skills in order to have a decent chance of getting good jobs.
The prospects are weak for high school, technical school and college graduates to get quality full time jobs. Of the fortunate graduates who are able to get jobs, many find themselves working in positions that pay less than they imagined, are less interesting and have limited opportunities for promotion.
A national survey found that less than 20% of 2009 graduating college students who applied for a job actually have one. Many of the jobs that were formerly available for young adults have either been eliminated or are being held by more experienced employees who are taking any job possible in order to hang on and ride out the economic storm. http://www.naceweb.org/press/display.asp?year=&prid=301
