Why are college graduates not getting jobs in their respected fields?

577 views

So many college graduates are working in fields that are not what they graduated in. I am not talking about non-Stem degrees, but even people with STEM-related degrees not getting jobs in their fields.

Lots of reasons… one is because schools/ parents push “do what you love” “find your passion” “study something that interests you” etc. when that is not (now or ever) what college is for. So when they graduate with a degree in ‘X’ humanities or ‘Y’ obscure historic art history major and try and get a job they realize making $25k/yr sucks and go outside their field for work.
