Graduating in 2008/2009
>no jobs at all even mcjobs are getting thousands of resumes
>unemployment 15%

>basically a failed generation

Graduating 2011-present
>university grads have multiple offers, making 80k starting
>pre-recession experienced workers making 2x 2007 wages
>2008/2009 grads are either working dead end jobs, back in school, or suicide casualties

This is NOT a bait thread, it is merely a sober look at the post-recession job market

If it looks like bait, and smells like bait, its probably bait.

He's the problem? He caused unemployment among graduates to be near 50% in 2009-2011?

>getting a job

There's your problem. Why the fuck would you want to get a job? Wagecucks are pathetic.

It's easier than ever before to make money but you need to break out of the wagecuck mentality.

Where in Alberta m8? I'm in red deer and consider myself very lucky to have a good paying job I like to do.
>>
>>1728961
Which city in Canada is still a good place to get a decent paying job ?
>>
Depends on what you want to do. I have a buddy who is in oil/gas and making $47/ hour as a rough neck. It won't last long though. I do insurance and work is always steady and it's a fun job. Not ball busting labour
>>
>>1729039
Are you an insurance underwriter ? Where you from mate ?
>>
Negative. I am a broker and I am from red deer Alberta. Sorry I'm not properly replying, long time lurker first time poster.
>>
>>1729167
Broker ? That's sales right ? How do you find your leads and would you advise non sales guy to get into it in Toronto ?
>>
>>1728696
What field are you in?

>>1728696
wtf field gets you that after 4 years of undergrad?

or does your dad run the company

You faggots think he's all that he says ?EL oh EL
>>
Yes, I connect sellers and buyers. As far as quotes go whenever someone contacts the company for a quote it is thrown into a pool and the first one that claims it gets to take it. I do not know enough about insurance in the east to advise someone to move out there for it. One of my co workers was an adjuster out there and he says that Alberta is a better market if that helps you any.

I graduated December 2008. Was the suck. All the work I've done has been remote. Finally I'm in a city of 400k, not that I really need it, but muh social interaction. Can't really function normally, no friends, probably scarred.
>>
I dropped out in 2008

>>1731045
>he thinks Trump will actually cut taxes

Lol wanna know how I know you don't actually have a $100k per year job? Cause you're a fuckin dumbass
>>
I'm going to graduate in December with a degree in Accounting focus Information Systems... I haven't been able to land an internship because of GPA being about 2.2 now 2.6 and looking to rise after this semester. Taking classes on data analytics, SAP, and normal auditing courses. Any tips from anons?
>>
>>1731111
>graduating with a 2.6

Yeah try and do it all over again cause youre not gonna get shit except shitty recruiter and human resources jobs..

Maybe even wind up at Starbucks if u didn't go to a halfway decent school
>>
>>1731155
You lack reading comprehension bro? I said looking to rise from 2.6 before graduation in December... two semesters from now.

God dammit I don't know why I post on here I just want to beat your nerd ass. I got fucking quads too and I can't even be exciting about it, never done it and can't be happy.
>>
>>1731101

Have you ever worked a corporate job? The one thing you learn very quickly is that there are an incredible number of unbelievably stupid and incompetent people earning over $100,000/year.

This is especially true with the "enhanced" affirmative action programs in many publicly-traded companies.
