[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any parents out there who paid $200K+ for college, kid did great, and now can't find job? Kid graduated from top 20/30 school with honors and career center was completely worthless. [/quote] Come on don’t blame the “career center.” Finding first jobs can happen quickly or take a while, obviously, depending on the industry and the approach that someone takes to jobhunting. Colleges have resources, but they’re certainly not responsible for handing anyone a job.[/quote] +1 Did the kid get any internships/do research? What was the kid's major? If you are in CS/Engineering, finding a job is fairly easy. Major in Russian lit and you have to work a bit harder to find a job---there are not job postings for that. Search for jobs that just require any degree and TAKE ONE. It may not be perfect, but you cannot expect that with certain degrees. [/quote]
