[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I graduated from an Ivy in the mid 90s with a STEM degree. Had multiple job offers with decent salaries and signing bonuses, as did most of my peers (range was generally $35-50k). Others went on directly to grad school. There were a handful of English major types that took odd jobs before going back to grad school, but I can't think of anyone who didn't have something lined up at graduation. [/quote] What a difference 15-20 years makes. It's a new world out there.[/quote] It certainly was a fortunate time for college grads. I do remember hearing from coworkers at my first job that they weren't hiring much at all even just 2-3 years earlier. The money was rolling then though - fat expense accounts, crazy projects, etc. Those were the days![/quote]
