Some
things to think about
FACT: With
more than 70% of young people attending college
today, and another 40% expecting to go on for
advanced degrees, getting a diploma is expected,
and thus, doesn't guarantee a ‘leg up’
in the professional world.
FACT: Today’s
college grads will hold as many as 10 jobs in
the first decade of their professional lives,
and are on track to have as many as 9 careers
in their lifetime with an average of 3 jobs in
each career.
FACT: Graduating
with an average of $17K in debt and a cost-of-living
that has severely outpaced starting salaries,
over 50% of today’s young professionals
are being forced to move home and remain dependant
on their parents.
FACT: With limited,
if any, professional work experience prior to
graduating from college, and no clear idea of
what careers suit their professional strengths,
college grads today are being viewed as the least
prepared generation to ever enter the workforce!
In fact, thousands of young people are feeling
the affects of On-set
Career Crisis.
