The statistics are frightening. The National Association of
Colleges and Employers' (NACE) 2009 Student Survey shows that just
19.7 percent of 2009 graduates who applied for a job actually have
one. And, according to NACE's Job Outlook 2010 Fall Preview,
employers expect to hire 7 percent fewer graduates from the college
Class of 2010 than they hired from the Class of 2009. What's worse,
this issue cannot completely be blamed on a poor economy.
Entry-level hiring should have increased because many employers
have laid off more expensive, experienced talent. So what's
preventing new talent from entering the career marketplace?
Millennials--those individuals born between 1977 and 1997 and
also known as Generation Y--often expect college to teach them how
to find jobs and are disappointed upon finding out this is not the
case. And the career advice they do receive comes from "authority
figures" (i.e., campus career center staff), whom they do not
believe or trust. These graduates need practical and insightful
guidance from someone who knows the challenges they face and how to
overcome them.
