Has anyone else noticed that these days, having a university degree does not seem to guarantee a good job anymore? In the US, more than 40% of new graduates are working in jobs that don’t even need a degree! In the UK and Canada, youth unemployment is even higher, and entry-level jobs are much harder to get. Now, for each job, there are more than 100 people applying
A lot of people blame technology (especially AI, robots and automation) for stealing jobs. But the truth is more complicated. Companies are using AI to get rid of simple tasks, yes, but they’re also sending jobs to cheaper countries. And when there are jobs, many companies do not care about your university name anymore. They want to see if you really have the skills or special training for that job. That means people have to pay even more to get extra “certificates” after graduating
Meanwhile, graduates are stuck with debt and stress. Many young people feel lost, frustrated, and even angry, like society promised them something it can’t deliver. In the past, too many frustrated young people has led to big changes. Sometimes for the better, sometimes not. Do you think the old way of working (one job, one company, climbing step by step) is over? Now, I see many young people having several jobs, working on short projects, or even starting small businesses on the side. In a recent report, more than half of workers noticed more people working two or more jobs
Is university still worth it today? Are “extra skills” and certificates just another money-making trick? Has anyone here found success without a degree, or by learning something new outside of school? Is this the start of a new way of working, or just a big mess?
Even how bad you would be ending up on being unemployed after finishing college but still it would be that recommended that you should be that finishing up college or having a degree because this would be your primary approach or thing that you would do at the time that you would be finishing it out on which you would be finding to land a job after you have finished it out on which we know that it would never been that so simple. Yes, there are tons of new graduates that havent been able to get a job after than but it doesnt mean that you shouldnt be finishing up your studies just because you have seen someone who do become succesful despite on having not be able to finish it out. We do know that there are different factors on which it would be affecting overall success on which simply means that you cant be able to rely with it alone and assuming that you would be able to achieve or commit on the same thing. You should be still that thriving to finish up college because just like been said that nothing beats out if you do have that a degree on which it isnt talking about job opportunity chances but also you do have that knowledge and skills on which other people who doesnt been able fo finish up but actually it all matters or depends on how you would be handling yourself.
