[quote=Anonymous][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]

Yes, TS is the ticket.  Both mom and dad are also in the field with over 50 years of combined experience.  However she's way more marketable than us as we only have PT lol.[/quote]
