[quote=Anonymous]I graduated from an Ivy in the mid-90s, and it was expected that you'd have something lined up (job or grad school). My close friends all had something - med or law school, PhD programs, consulting jobs, government. I didn't, as of graduation, and felt bad (felt like I would be disappointing my parents). My grand plan was to move to DC and continue to job hunt - fortunately that plan worked, and I ended up with a gov position. I didn't realize until I'd started just how bad the economy was - the gov agency that hired me was actually in the middle of a hiring freeze and had managed to get an exception to bring a handful of us on board.
