@darkalchemistninja You’re such a tool. If you want to go that route, and you know which one I’m talking about, then others can do the same to you. Why don’t YOU go back home. Your ancestors weren’t from this land. You’re not a native here. You don’t belong here. Stop talking trash about others needing to go back to where they came from and take a look at yourself when you do say it. Weebo 12 year-old. You know NOTHING. Learn your history. And if you’re older than 12, then that’s pathetic.

The thing that …
The thing that grinds my gears is employers continue to think a 4 year degree isn’t important and that it’s incredibly easy to get. Also there’s no such thing as taking care of your employees anymore. College students spent all that money on a college degree, the least they can do is give them some kind of benefits.
Sometimes I just want to punch HR people in the face and make them thankful that they weren’t born at the time we were. Sorry Generation Yers, you’re f*cked.
I know someone who …
I know someone who has a Master’s degree, graduated his undergrad with a 3.8 GPA (summa laude) from a private college, was the valedictorian of his high school class, and the college he went to never threw him a bone. His advisers sucked and used their 6 figure salary to never respond to his e-mails asking for assistance.

Its just a plan the steady break down of society let ppl go jobless soon being jobless we gotta go stealing thats when movies like escape from new york becomes our reality & when the nuke war starts &plantanimal life is gone to survive i smell canibals as for the nwo elite rich they safe in deep underground bases sad unfolding reality
The value of a …
The value of a dollar continues to go down, inflation is alive and well, the college degree has become an admission ticket to the job market. Unemployment rates by CNN or Forbes are just for jobs with benefits, saying it’s 10% average. If you count all of unemployment it’s really 25-30%.
It’s all about the money really when it comes to hiring but employers don’t like to go there because they don’t want to discourage anyone. What saves money? Experience, experience, and more experience.
My dad said about …
My dad said about 12 years ago to me that the college degree will someday be the same as a high school diploma. My take is that if these college students don’t get a degree that helps market themselves to today’s job market, it’s the equivalent of a high school diploma. Education, nursing/health care/medical, and engineering are really the only industries where you can find a job anywhere in the US, even before you obtain the degree.
Man this guy is so …
Man this guy is so right. I’v Been job less for more then 8Months, I am having a huge problem finding a job. But I did apply at the IRS and yet i did’nt get hired. I guess they hired a guy with 10 year Experiences.
The unemployment …
The unemployment rate is high. The income in employment is low. It therefore makes immense sense to try hands in freelancing.
I recently joined EZDIA and I am able to offer my financial advices to my clients. Not a great money but few hundred
dollars a month does not hurt.

just watch these videos. because your poorly informed. Unemployment is 74% Look around you. How many buildings leasing and for sale? There are closed due to business owners being forced to close do to out rageous charges and fees. Watch the videos show here.

DEMCAD- Couldn’t agree with you more !
These colleges are just continuing with the game that big institutions played by RIPPING OFF the masses by using the FEAR CARD. They(colleges) are aware that the masses are beginning to panic and believe that by getting a formal education they(masses) will see a miraculous occurance to do away with economic hardship that is becoming reality. Face it -cash is no longer king…Thank You Congress/ Federal Reserve/Big Banks/ Wall Street / Big Buss. -Buy P.M.
I’m not trashing …
I’m not trashing college grads. I’m a grad, too. But the fact of the matter is that these colleges and universities are over-charging for tuition. They’re a rip off.
A degree isn’t what it use to be.

bro dont be so negative about college graduates .. some employes actually preffer college graduates than to hire someone who has worked in certain field for more than 10 yrs because they could pay the college grad way less !

GDP isnt really a indicator of peoples well being I would rather work for 40k a year working avg of 35 hrs a week than make 60k a yr working 45 hrs a week.

I did read my previous comment and it was pretty error filled but seriously it is you-tube.
hey man its …
hey man its you-tube.. if your worried about grammar on you-tube then you need to lighten up. And i have a job now, not a good one though,
Your grammar isn’t …
Your grammar isn’t at the level of a college graduate. That’s probably a major reason why you aren’t getting job offers. The market is extremely tough right now. I just graduated and it took me three months to find a job, but it’s definitely not the pay I was looking for. My advice would be to do some volunteer work or an unpaid internship. Be sure to personalize your resume and cover letter, and work on your grammar.
