[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the parent of a newly minted STEM grad, one of the other crazy things we're seeing is that many STEM job postings are requiring, at minimum, one or more years of experience.

How is a new STEM grad supposed to get one or more years of experience if nobody will hire them?  An internship doesn't add up to a full year, my and there aren't enough STEM internships out there to give all STEM students out there the experience that industry claims to need.[/quote] 
This has  been my 2022 grad DD path.  Right after UMD she secured and intern position with a contractor at 60k May.  She became permanent in September and got a bump to 86k.   A year later her whole group was laid off, but she was able to secure at TS with Poly a couple months prior.  She was off for may 3 weeks, with tons of interviews and landed a position at 120k.  A year later she's gotten a raise  and close to 125k. A lot of her peers she graduated with that year have been somewhat successful. However I've heard the following years graduates have been having a tougher time.

Key thing is to land an internship program that provides sound experience, not just busy work.  Experience weighs more than starting salary.[/quote]

Or, the key thing was targeting jobs with TS, eliminating foreign competition.[/quote]
