[quote=Anonymous]This post surprises me because a few months ago I posted a question asking why none of these unemployed college graduates are working as nannies (or if they were), and everyone responded that the recent graduates think its better to do unpaid internships in their fields and keep out hope for something in their area of interest, or go back for more education, rather than work as a nanny. I knew great people who did it during the early '90's recession, and was looking for something similar, but couldn't find anyone like that. We pay about 60K/yr ....maybe the uber-rich paying over 100K a year (and, yes, I'm sure there are folks that do that) are snapping up all the college grads. But I do think its more likely that they are living rent-free in their old rooms and doing unpaid internships or spending their days sending out resumes and making LinkedIn pages. In short, I think this is a bogus trend story.[/quote]
