Not really surprising, but does this count people who graduated who are now going back to school? Does it count
and a quote from the article
LOL I am sure this person isn't surprised and if they are they are an idiot.
Most of the people I know who graduated and got a decent job right away were in fields like engineering, computer science, business,... High demand fields, also had internships.
Nearly everyone has now gone back for another degree both ones that started off with a good job or not. Those that had a degree in a low demand field or one that you already know you won't be able to do good work till you get a masters or higher just went back to school.
But now nearly everyone I know is doing very well or finishing up and should be doing very well shortly.
Really I have found that most people are still just figuring things out when getting their first degree, first real job, and living on their own. It takes a while for most to figure out what they really want to do.
But once you do and have or are finishing with that first degree things really start to open up then you can plan a path to what you really want to do.

"I don't even know what I'm looking for," says Michael Bledsoe, who described months of fruitless job searches as he served customers at a Seattle coffeehouse. The 23-year-old graduated in 2010 with a creative writing degree.
