Help college graduates find jobs
Today’s discussion on “Help your College Grad find a Job Faster” is brought to you by Fifth Third Bank.
Oh my goodness! Did you know that half of today’s college graduates do not have jobs? I have four children as you know, aged 22, 24, 25 and 26! They are all at various points in their college, graduate studies or post college lives. And I worry…
Don’t you worry if your kids will find jobs,
I was surprised to find out at least two hundred people apply for every job opening, while only 2% actually get interviewed*. Where would my kids find these jobs anyway? According to NextJob.com, 50% of jobs aren’t even posted online! That’s a shocking statistic.

I love this program. Anything that can help college grads find jobs, especially in their field is, helps the economy on all levels 🙂
I think that this is a fine program to administer. I reasonably think that it is always necessary to help as many college kids graduate, and because it helps it is needed.
I didn’t realize the numbers were that dismal. Job coaching seems to be the way to go if you want fast results.
Looks like a good program. Don’t know anyone looking for a job right now.
My daughter has a summer job then its back to college
My daughters chose not to go to college. They both have been working since they were 15 years old and now they’re in their late twenties and doing the jobs they wanted without going to college. My oldest is a vet tech for the Army and my youngest is a pharmacist assistant. Hard work and determination pays off either way 🙂
