[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back when people read philosophy in college and the like, the assumption was that employers hired bright people and then trained them. The real issue today isn’t universities but employers who no longer provide any training. This puts us in the situation where either your university now teaches project management and data analysis or the student pays for boot camps and the like later on their own. The fault is really the employers who don’t want a broadly educated workforce. They just want serfs [/quote] Recent grads are complaining about this a lot. Companies seem to have forgotten what it's like to be a new grad in your first real job. The problem has been compounded by the number of new grads who are starting their jobs as remote workers.[/quote] Big reason internship/coop is getting more and more important, and schools like Northeastern is getting insanely popular.
