The Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching (QILT) survey found graduate satisfaction was at its lowest since the poll began in 2016.
Many have since discovered that they will need to pursue further studies to be qualified for entry-level jobs in their field.
BTW I don’t have a degree so can’t really comment, I left school as soon as I turned 16
I was 15 when I left Bruce because my birthday was in July. No degree here either.
I thought this might happen with so many students acquiring good grades and qualifications, it sort of devalues them. If gold could be found under every stone the price would come down.
It’s being said here that a lot of the degrees are over priced and not sought after.
Students who work through college are highly valued by employers, as this experience builds critical soft skills, expands professional networks, and proves time-management abilities.
If you can’t find employment in your field while in college, your chances are slimmer upon graduation.
I wouldn’t want to be young now and having to ensure I had a good job … and then spending a lot of working life saving for my pension.
I was 16 when I left school and went into a trade. To much emphesis is universities anyway in my opinion. What is wanted are trade schools for higher work skills
When i was working, we had a saying about graduates with engineering degrees as someone who can calculate the volume of a pickle jar, but can’t work out how to get the lid off.
I left school and went into the Trade Winds, bad decision.
