WHEN IN COLLEGE WORK SUMMER JOBS RELATED TO YOUR MAJOR TO GAIN EXPERIENCE FOR WHEN YOU GRADUATE!!

I was depressed and bullied in college, I looked around and saw not a single kid helping the lower classmen. Assignments that require teamwork was being done by one person. They showed no love or respect for the teachers. One day the teacher came to school when her boyfriend broke up with her. She was angry at everyone, and I wanted to tell her that I love her as a teacher. I did not because I was introvert and it was kind of scary to do so. But the whole class just complained to the principal about her attitude. I stopped caring about school after that and tried to build friendships. In my opinion, school has no heart or soul just mindless slaves caring only about grades.

Who is telling college graduates they will get their dream job straight out of college?!? I wish colleges would do a better job in teaching students about applying for jobs, building a resume, doing mock interviews, etc. Don't blow off job fairs. Talk to professors about interning/job opportunities to get experience, and use them to network. In college I volunteered at a lab for 2 years, worked at the same lab for two summers in a row, and then was offered a permanent position there upon graduation. It's a tough balance between enjoying college and planning for your future, but remember why you are going to college and use those 4 years productively.

I’m 41 years old with a B.A. in English, and I can tell you firsthand I learned this hard truth 15 years ago. Graduated college in 2006 and could not find any job aside from hospitality and waitressing. Did that for a couple years while I tried to figure out what I really wanted to do, finally ended up getting some entry level crappy admin job at age 26 in an office and at that point was just happy to have a M-F work schedule with holidays and weekends off. After a couple years of that crappy low pay job I was able to get a better job once I had some office experience, but yeah really difficult to get your foot in the door. Thing is it’s been this way for a long while but I think it’s only now getting more attention because of social media…which barely existed when I graduated college. Now people are sharing their stories on TikTok and it’s garnering more attention, but I will tell you this is nothing new. A college degree does not guarantee you a well-paying job.

25 year old with accounting degree. First job 100k.

Millennial mom here; I studied college all while working. But remember the alien feeling after high school

Marketing means having a " book " of clients essentially in today's world. Everybody and their grandmother can get a degree in marketing no problem; what you have is an OVER SUPPLY of marketing graduates.

If you must go to college and spend big money, make sure your degree is in something an employer can't live without. Law, Nursing, Medicine, Pharmacist, Computer Analysts, etc.. The good jobs don't need a college degree at all. I have a GED, retired with a pension at 60, have no bills, two cars, a house with no mortgage and 2 million dollars!

Employers understand that college degrees these days are mere expensive pieces of toilet paper. Schools collect huge amounts of money to provide a four year kindergarten party experience with a useless piece of paper at the end to show for it!

Four days before I graduated from High School. I planned my whole life, I'm 60 and I can say my plan worked wonders. First off I didn't go to college. I wasn't going to jump into that rabbit hole and takes me in my late 30's or longer to get out from that debt. I just went directly into the workforce. Started as a grunt, and work myself starting as a apprentice to a skills trade. My dad always said you only need two things in life a skills trade and know how to hustle. I learned how to hustle at an age of 13. Started my apprenticeship with the help of my boss. Worked myself to a journeyman and got reasonable pay raises. So start drawing weekly paychecks on day one and learning the skills and getting pay at the same time. This made more sense to me. I now own my home out right and been out of debt forever. Life been good to me and very happy on the route to success and where I stand today.

For the second girl. You don’t look like a loser if you have 100k saved up and going to school while at home

The problem is that people think a degree is enough, when jobs say they want experience they mean it! No one tells you that you need to get internships and work throughout college to gain that experience. It’s sad a lot of people are falling into this trap, if anyone is still in college it’s not too late IMMEDIATELY look for summer internships and reach out to any connections you might have! This is a NECESSITY, it doesn’t matter if you got a business degree or an engineering degree YOU NEED WORKING EXPERIENCE!!! (Also a good degree helps, don’t get a useless degree that you will never find a job in, like fine arts or humanities)

The sad part is getting a degree and not being able to earn more than people that have trades

The most amazing thing is that most of these college graduates use the word "like" over and over. You are not as great as you think you are! You read some books, took tests/exams and wrote papers, but you have not prepared yourself for the REAL WORLD. Most graduates are absolutely CLUELESS. This is sad and scary!!

Friends daughter with nursing degree. First job 125k.

i graduated back in May and I STILL CANNOT FIND A JOB. I am applying to jobs at Publix and Kroger just to make some money. Ive had some interviews and been jerked around be other jobs. Most of them just don't respond and at this point its sad and deperessing. Im worried that the longer this is taking the more this is going to hurt me. There was a job i was the runner up for where I was going against someone with 11 years of experience. Why the hell is someone with 11 years of experience applying to an entry level job?

So I used to think “oh I can’t the job I want after college” the trick is while your in college find a job that has similar skill sets to the job you want, no matter what the pay is cause you need the experience. I graduated with a marketing degree I took a job in a local statefarm office where I was making $28k plus commission a year. Babyyyyy the commission was PENNIES do you hear me? But I gained a lot of skills while there and moved into a different sales position where I was making $18 a hour with OT and commission. Sooooo much better! During the busiest season of the year I was clearing $4k to $6k in commission plus OT and it was a little more an hour. I was able to move out on my own and save up for a down payment on my first home. Now I’m in a new position where I’m making $45k a year plus commission. On a bad month I’m making $2k commission on a good month $14k commission. I finally can afford the life I want to live 😊

College hasn’t failed anyone on the contrary it provided a valuable product to people which is a education a pathway towards a profession. The real issue is that the system has turned predatory on capitalizing on the dreams of people. Employers now expect individuals to train themselves by placing the burden on colleges which hence are ill equipped to do so. It is simply not possible without a coordinated cooperative between school and industry. Businesses want people to be desperate to lower wages and have low hanging fruit to pick on due to desperation on a low limited amount of jobs the industry can provide.

College has failed in one huge fundamental way. They have failed to produce fully functioning adults. Yes, they have given degrees to young twenty-somethings but, they have failed to produce adults. Those mature people capable of functioning at a job and life in general!

This probably depends on your degree. Got an engineering job after graduation. It wasn't lined up either. I did apply to like 20 jobs and got a few interviews.

Blessings for all new and recent college graduates that they get the employment they need.

Why don’t you look at availability of jobs, lots of teachers needed, lots of jobs in healthcare, lots of jobs, maybe not in your exact field, but good jobs with benefits. My daughter got a great job after college, yeah, she was lucky, but it’s entirely possible.

I’m 27 never went to college 100% debt free my net worth rn is $35k I feel good about the decision so far 🤷🏿‍♂️

Yea it's sucks spending all that money to go to college for corporation level mid tier positions, meaning you're not frontlines, and you're not upper management. Honestly, right now, all the jobs cuts being made the last 2-3yrs are those positions yall wanted to get, especially in marketing, design, and tech.

I can relate to some of these people in this video in regards to having a worthless college degree that didn't benefit me in getting any of the jobs I have had. Smh

Honestly, I’ve never came to class late except one time. I made sure that I notified my professor & the reasoning in advance. I graduated recently May 2024 with my associates degree in applied science as Magna Cum Laude & going for my Bachelors starting Spring ‘25 in January. It happens sometimes to us students, but there are ways to go about it in a professional manner to notify your professor if you’re going to be late. Trust me they’ll understand as long as you communicate to them.

*All degrees are not equal.* If it ain't a STEM degree, it ain't sh!t. (in terms of the average salary vs the average education debt).

I'm not sure why people with degrees think they're "better than" or "more deserving" of a job vs. someone without one! Folks are really ignorant! Especially because there's people with disabilities that get looked over and discriminated against! Plus, everyone doesn't have the aptitude for school! Even with trade school. Trade school takes a physical toll on your health. I have SEVERE disabilities both physically and mentally! I literally CAN'T work! I shouldn't have to! I need money, NOT work! There's people in the comments talking about "its who you know, not what you know" and that's a huge problem! Everyone doesn't have friends, everyone doesn't have family! You shouldn't need to know anyone! You shouldn't need "references!" Like, how mentally inept do you have to be to not come up with an original thought of your own that you have to piggyback off someone else's? Instead of giving that person a chance, you'd rather listen to a bunch of he say/she say BS about the person in question! And 9x/10, its not the person that's the problem, its those talking BS ABOUT said person in question! Anyway, just because a person has a degree, it doesn't make them "better than" anyone and it doesn't make them "deserving" of a job vs. someone without one! I don't have a degree or trade. Hell, even a GED is asking for too much! I have SOME college experience but not a degree! I don't want a degree! I can't take it to my grave!

College degrees aren’t really that special anymore. A person can literally use their smartphone to take online courses and use AI apps to help them complete assignments, and take exams. Also in some situations, individuals have zero experience working a full time job, which is a task in of its self. A college degree doesn’t guarantee a good worker.

I understand that STEM degrees end off paying off the most, but a lot of people are ignorant saying that you get a job without a degree. Like if I got a degree in Marketing Analytics and can’t get a job, then how the fuck would I get a job in the same field with no degree. And even if I get the job after a certification, all my higher ups will most likely have bachelors and masters, so I will never be able to move up. Saying that a certain group of people should just accept that they will be entry level forever is mad ignorant.

2:07 No girl. More schooling isn’t the solution. 😂

22:00 this lady is telling some hard truths

same thing was in 2008-2014 with millenials. amazing.

Military always available. Got 3 degrees for free. I get job experience, and a lot of benefits. Best time being that Operation Enduring Freedom is over. 🤷🏿‍♂️

As people already commented - it honestly depends what degree you do. If it's something random BS degree like comms or something you will have trouble to find a job. You need STEM degree, law degree or accounting or something like that to make it valuable. I got 2 engineering degrees and got a job fairly easily.

Oh you can be a college grad and be employed... you just can't necessarily be a college grad working in the field that you got your degree. In my personal case, the time that I spent in college just gave me a few years break from the usual 9 to 5 bullshyt that I was doing before I went to college. I got to go right back to it after so, yeah... the difference is now though, I owe over 100,000 to somebody tjat is never gonna get paid. My credit is meaningless in a world you can't afford to buy a house to begin with.

Do you guys actually think its better to leave your degree off your resume? 🤔

i hate people who eat chew and talk, so gross

All the money spent on a education that doesn't even pay the bills.

If I interviewed some of these people I see why they didn’t get the job. Geeze

Relationships are worth more than money..ppl who ignore everyone on their path in life look up and made zero connects..I got ppl in other cities n states who will recognize me. Ppl will give sumone the job they know first before you. Older Gen got those degrees over 30-40years ago, they gone gatekeep

If you don't have a college degree you better learn Spanish most construction and hospitality jobs requires you to be bilingual in Florida

I abhor noisy eaters, ugh. That alone disqualifies someone.

It takes mad skillz bro, not so much cOLlegE

I am going to a local community college next year, planning on graduating there and landing a job as a mri-tech. Hoping my current and future connections do me well with finding a job after graduation.

I’m in trade work and I work with two people who have their degrees and couldn’t do sh*t with them lmao

Divinely protected by the universe? LOL 😂

I’m Canadian, WTF is a degree in ‘Communications’? Is that like psychology here? You know, the fall back degree.

The way you get experience is once you decide what you want to be . You get a job or volunteer at the bottom of a company that will give you the experience you need even if its a few hrs a week. Instead of borrowing questionable free money and paying 200,000 for a job that pays 50k a yr. With top of 80k. The other road go into a trade related to the profession you want . The advantage is you making $$ and creat a network for post grad. Opportunities. If your a man quit sniveling over mistakes "you" made. Your not a victem. Think out of the Box. That's what your Daddy should have told you.

Sixty years ago most of the jobs that you need a college degree to get didn't need a college degree to obtain. Are we saying that young people today are more stupid so they need more training to do the same work people used to do without a degree.

Accounting degree is worth it, they are hiring and you can make 100k in a couple of years so idk why they made fun of it in this video.

This is a simple equation. If your degree isn't STEM then you wasted your money. If you can't do STEM then go to CC, no harm in that. Advanced degrees are useless and very debt-oriented plus you are losing out to people several years younger than you when you get out. There are folks in Gen Z and even Gen A that are total go-getters that would rather die than live at home with their parents. They're doubling/tripling up in apartments on their own, making it. They are out there. The people in these videos are not the whole generation thank goodness. There are some serious players out there that are young. These just aint it!

Yes😮😮😮

14:08 Gosh, I could barely understand her. It's like she's on fast-forward. Slow tf down!!!

Then find another job !!

2:01 stay in school? Lady, if the system doesn't work, why tell people to stay in it? 😮‍💨

I comment here because you asked for this. Your complaint about what your teacher said is understandable, but it causes me to believe you may be a bit soft. I was in the army before I went to get my degree. When you're late in the army, much worse things happen than someone saying words. As an Iraq war veteran, I approached college with enthusiasm because it represented an opportunity to do non-life threatening work. I learned to love math because no one was trying to kill me while doing difficult calculus homework at 2 am. And because I did engineering / tech related education, I had a job waiting for me at graduation. I remember being in class at age 25 or 26 and seeing students walk in late. My internal monologue was telling me to rage at those kids for being late. But, I had to remember that my military experiences don't really have a place amongst American civilians. They can't handle the extreme circumstances I dealt with on a day-to-day basis. So I kept my mouth shut in regards to late students I saw. To reiterate, i commented because you asked for perspective.

Damn you got a whole building to make videos? Nice

Ladies, please stop with the makeup application while speaking. It makes you appear unserious!

What are u?

Invest in Dogecoin🔥
