It must suck to be a college graduate these days

Man it must have suck to be graduating from college these days if you’re expecting to be employed right afterwards. Fresh grads will be competing with others who just got laid off for a small number of spots companies are offering. It’s either companies ceased hiring or their requirements just  became strict.

sadgraduate I remember during my college days when the IT industry was in full bloom so it was quite easy to land a job. A few years later nursing and PT became hot. Then afterwards, the emergence of call centers easily employed thousands of fresh graduates.

But what about now? Companies ceased hiring or don’t hire as aggressive as they used to. Or they become stricter with their requirements that only the best gets accepted.

This economic crisis sucks. If you want to venture into blogging, don’t expect that it can easily support your expenses day in and day out.

    I agree. On another aspect, even just a year or two ago, if you couldn’t find a job here in the Philippines, you have an option to go abroad (with guts and a bit of luck), but nowadays even that is not so optimistic…
