Why can't junior get a job? Try getting a few skills employers can use..............
First up is Jackie Mroz, 22, of Oregon City: “She put everything she had into her studies at the University of Oregon, graduating in 2009 with degrees in international studies and sociology and a double minor in nonprofit administration and African studies. She studied abroad in Senegal, took challenging courses, earned a 3.8 grade point average and raced through college in three years.”
I am no expert, but I cannot see much of a market for sociology or knowing how to run a business that doesn’t make money.
Next up is “John Yeier, 24, who graduated from the Oregon Institute of Technology in Klamath Falls on Saturday. He’s the sole member of his class with a degree in embedded engineering, which integrates computer software and hardware in cell phones, cars and other machines. He will work on small plane navigation system software for Garmin AT in Salem.”
Hmm. Studied engineering. He has a job waiting for him.
Next up is “Audra Armen-Van Horn, 23, Portland, worked for Victoria’s Secret while earning her psychology degree from the University of Oregon. Now, a year after graduating in 2009 and applying for more than 100 jobs, she’s still working part time for the store while hoping to get a job with the American Cancer Society.”
A psychology degree without a psychologist’s license is not worth much.
What's hilarious is how many of these people claim to be smart yet fail to understand the concept of delivering skills to an employer. No doubt future democrats.
