With thousands of students graduating this month, experts are saying that new grads should brace themselves that not a lot of job openings are not available.
There are so many college graduates these days that the bachelor's degree no longer holds the weight that it used to. It's now the new high school diploma.
Glad I went straight to the United States Postal Service right out of high school. Sure hours are long and exhausting, but at least I’m paid a lot better than most jobs and all I needed was a high school diploma, drivers license, and a clean record with no criminal history.
Unemployment numbers are not accurate. It’s actually much higher because it doesn’t count the people who are unemployed but have stopped looking for a job. Companies are looking for skills and experience not necessarily just a degree because they are no longer willing to train.
Coding jobs are almost impossible right now and you better be really good. Competing with millions of layoffs, graduates from last year, new graduates from around the world, and AI replacing beginner coding jobs. It's the truth and the truth hurts. Btw, coding jobs itself is stressful and time consuming with many interviews. Good luck, you will need it. Trade skills are best right now.

California is in a recession right now, and we have lost more jobs than any other state. Most of those jobs are Tech Jobs. Meanwhile the Federal Government is expanding like crazy while the private sector shrinks. Remember "learn to code?" Well, almost everyone did, and then outsourcing happened and still is happening. Now with AI in the picture it gets more complicated.
Colleges will take as many students as they can. Doesn’t mean there’s enough jobs available in real life.
The parents drill this college idea on their children because they're still living in the past where a college degree actually meant something.
The “Strong market” with “new jobs” are literally warehouse jobs or service jobs.
Jobs expect you to have a degree, 10 years of experience and know how to do the job already to get hired ridiculous really

College is important, but this just proves that college alone is not what’s needed to be hirable
The only jobs available are management and they expect management to work 24/7 for less than 70k/year.
4 years of college just to get a warehouse job

I lost 2 friends to offing themselves, yet the state was laughing at them saying why are you not a nurse , Gorbachev's reforms works....

College is a big gamble of money, time, and your future.
I'm not sure anyone can turn this around. Over ten years the damage has been done.
College degree is the only thing that cost more and worth less over time. Worse of both worlds
