These days, everyone knows that it's tough to get a well-paying job due to the downfall of the economy. People are competing harder than ever because they want to make sure that once they get out of college, they will have a greater chance of getting a decent job. Due to the long-term recession, there aren't many jobs available and people are struggling to get what they can. Recently, the National Association of Colleges and Employers has shown that the percentage of jobs available went up 9.5% since 2011. Students graduating in 2012 will also have higher salaries. The NACE has said the paid interns had the most success when it came to getting job offers. Also, companies are looking for more fresh, new faces to replace the older employees who are leaving their positions.
My view:
With the economy at such a weak point right now, it is very encouraging to see companies offering more jobs to graduating college students. Many students are fearful of the fact that they might be unemployed when they graduate, seeing how many graduates have failed to acquire jobs in the past. With companies being more open-minded to the situation the economy is in, it brings a little more hope to the future generation. Companies, like Enterprise, can become popular by hiring younger personnel to their team. These people are more up to date on certain technologies and trends and they could be a useful tool for the company to reach a different, younger type of audience.
