"The class of 2025 college graduates is entering a difficult job market. Not only is there economic uncertainty, but hiring managers also express skepticism about the capabilities and professionalism of young workers joining the workforce.

Resume.org surveyed 1,000 hiring managers in April to understand how they feel about hiring recent college grads and what challenges they’ve encountered with this group.

Takeaways:

8 in 10 hiring managers say a recent college graduate didn’t work out at their company in the past year, and 65% say they had to fire one

78% of hiring managers say recent grads spend too much time on their phones

More than half say recent grads are unprepared for the workforce and difficult to manage

1 in 6 are reluctant to hire this cohort"

Yes education and parents failed them.

We now ask for what high school they went to and their transcript / grades.

We want a track record of hard work and success and accountability.  Ones who top out with only pre algebra - and fakey grades - don’t get an interview. They simple cannot think through anything, nor learn. [/quote]

If that is the case how are you employed?[/quote]

I graduated public high school back in 1997, before NCLB and before common core. It was back when they still make suspensions, expulsions, flunked kids, had tracking grade 2 onward, had special ed pull outs, sent violent teens to juvenile delinquent centers, only had standardized tests every other year once, had text books, graded harshly, demanded real writing / spelling/ grammar, etc. There was honors track and AP tests and class rankings, weighted and unweighted. Never had tutors or summer school.

+1 except severe SPEd was not mainstreamed and there was no ESOL.

We had homework, science fairs and reading reports in ES. But that's deemed old school and not fair because it's all about equal outcomes not equal opportunities. [/quote]
