Many students are finding it hard to get jobs that are applicable to their degree after university and as a third year student this worries me. And with the recession as it is this situation is only going to get worse before it gets better.
Students are settling for jobs that they could of easily have gotten without their degree, whilst paying off their debts, this again isn’t a good sign for me. Hopefully I can land on my feet so to speak and get a job within the field of journalism, or win the lottery either is good for me. But realistically I will be paying my student loan off with alot of hard work, it has been worth 3 brilliant years at UCLAN thou.
Having never had a full time job so therefore never applied for one it worries me that people who have degrees similar to mine are struggling to find jobs and has made me realise that a masters degree maybe the way forward. However funding could be a major issue
However it isn’t al doom and gloom as this isn’t applicable to everyone and hopefully I can be one of those lucky ones who enter a job relevant to their degree as that won’t make me feel as bad about my student debt, not to mention the debt to my mother!!!!!
With this being a topic that interests me I took my camera out and interviewed a recent graduate of UCLAN to see how his quest for a job went.
