There seems to be a large percentage of recent college graduates who are unemployed.

    Well yeah. Your college GPA doesn’t matter unless you’re trying to get into grad school.

      It did matter for GE. Jerks wanted 3.8 or higher to consider you. They did interviews as a formality. Didn’t matter if you went to community or ivy league. Never felt so annoyed at my life choices. Hindsight glad I didn’t get the job.

      Of course my current company, my coworkers went to a local cheap party school. Like wtf was the struggle for?

        The struggle is for nothing? If you went to a school with grade deflation to ‘maintain the integrity of education’? Get fucked, party schools will pass kids or allow kids to grade grub to a higher GPA.

        Academia is such a fucking game.

          Yeah I felt like I got wrecked with high debt and high stress for years. Meanwhile I got coworkes who said school was chill and literally on a beach.

          I went to just one interview were someone cared about college and that’s only because they went there.
