Students fresh from tertiary study

Some graduates may have found lately that in their respective field they cannot get a job. As the economy is as it is, companies are more reluctant to hire even experienced staff as they do not feel they can afford it, which unfortunately means it’s very difficult for an inexperienced university graduate to get a job. To this end, it may be wise if you are in this situation to consider going back to university and doing a post graduate degree, not only will it give you something to do to fill your time, but it will also give you that advantage over other candidates when the economy settles down and companies are looking to hire again.

"We are already the most highly educated generation in the workforce (+) yet the study work transition dilemma still exists. Further education doesn't solve the problem for graduates it merely postpones it. Wait to be hired!? Guys, we need to think Entrepreneur vs. Employee. Why wait in line to be employees when we can determine our own future? I absolutely care about this issue so I've expanded my thoughts here http://blog.worknow.co.nz/2009/09/think-small-solutions"

"I've always hired students as they transition out of study and in amongst business. If you get the right ones just finished students are into making their mark on the world and into pushing themselves to be as much as they can be... which means you can make a team of soon to be experts...
