Ivy leaguers are taking jobs that are paying 25k a year. 25K. Its real in these streets after graduation. My degree isn't sexy but I'veinterned at one of the biggest independent firms on Wall Street, I've held leadership positions at on campus jobs as well as student orgs. Don't knowif that counts for much because my grades aren't going to get me a job. If anything I might work on some political campaigns in 2010 to pad my resume as Ihave already done in local elections.Originally Posted by JD161616
Are you saying that like you're surprised?? A Princeton graduate is doing secretary work at my roommates job.Originally Posted by eight2one
well this is real encouraging..
I see people all over with degree's that cant get jobs.
Graduated in December '07...got job offers by March...didn't accept a job until the following September. Glad I waited for something I really wanted, rather than settle for something sub-par. At this point, though, you might as well take what you can get as the unemployment rate continues to rise.
Internships and previous experience people....grades mean nothing after school...
