Even Recent College Graduates With Advanced Degrees Finding A Tough Job Market

It’s a bit ironic when you think about it. The mostly liberal educational institutes push a college education as the only way to get ahead in the job market while their liberal policies are crushing the economy.

Via the WSJ:

Caitlin Johnson, 23 years old, may soon find herself among them. A 2009 graduate of Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a B.S. in computer-science and engineering, she said she was unable to land any of the 10 positions she applied for.

So she opted to stay at MIT for her master’s in engineering. Having just finished her first year of the two-year program, Ms. Johnson said she might look for a job at the end of the summer to start after she completes the degree next year. But finding graduate school more appealing and facing a job market that remains weak, she said she would most likely go on to earn her Ph.D.

What does that say about the economy when a engineering graduate from MIT can’t find work.

Aneri Patel, 25, graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2007 with an undergraduate degree in international relations. She landed a good job with a consulting firm, but decided to go to the London School of Economics in 2008 to learn more about climate change and be a stronger candidate in the job market. She never imagined how bad the job market would get while she was overseas in graduate school.

Learn more about ‘climate change’?

Climate change is proven fraud and hoax. And the ‘remedy’ to the mythical climate change, green energy, is a proven job killer.
