College grads taking jobs unrelated to their studies
By Quentin Fottrell
After four years of college, many graduates are ending up in jobs that
only require the ability to operate a cash register with a smile.
After commencement, a growing number young people say they have no
choice but to take low-skilled jobs, according to a survey released this
week.
And while 63% of “Generation Y” workers — those age 18 to 29 — have a
bachelor’s degree, the majority of the jobs taken by graduates don’t
require one, according to an online survey of 500,000 young workers
carried out between July 2011 and July 2012 by PayScale.com, a company
that collects data on salaries.
