The Youth Unemployment Bomb

[agamemnus]

No, it's really not.

I know first hand that new grads with a Liberal Arts degree and a major in Economics can find employment on the east coast, starting salary $50,000. Kellogg's and J & J to name just two.

They were just lucky mang. I did apply to J&J a while ago, and I tried a range of cities I believe, without a peep from the other end.

PS: A liberal arts degree and a major in economics? Economics is the degree, unless you mean "concentration", in which case they wouldn't even have an economics degree... uhh... and I'm sure that people with just a "liberal arts" degree (B.A.?) can find a mid-wage $50,000 job right away, yeah...
