The Recession Effects an Employed
Smith College’s career office sent its anxious job-hunting seniors a letter last month with a reassuring message : "There are jobs, and you can find employment." Unfortunately, there are far fewer jobs than anticipated, according to a report out today from the National Association for Colleges and Employers (NACE). The companies surveyed for the group’s spring update are planning to hire 22 % fewer graduates from the class of 2009 than they hired from the class of 2008, a big letdown from the group’s projections in October that hiring would hold steady. Some 44% of companies in the survey, conducted last month, said they plan to hire fewer new graduates, and another 22% said they do not plan to hire at all this spring, more than double last year’s figure. " If you were a student and were out there (interviewing) in the fall, you probably had a decent chance of getting a job," says Edwin Koc, director of strategic and foundation research at NACE. "But frankly, the spring does not look good. "
Job prospects for college graduates, which had been on the rise since 2004, dropped in virtually every sector this year. The most dramatic decline was, not surprisingly, in finance, which hemorrhaged 71 % of expected job openings. Less expected but equally troubling is the 37% decline in hiring for professional services, which include accounting and engineering. " Poor hiring estimates from this area speak to the depth of the recession in the college labor market for the class of 2009," the report says.
Government is essentially the only industry planning to hire more new graduates this year than last, as the new Administration expands and a graying workforce retires. The increase in government recruiting is obvious to students. Last year, notes Dorothy Kerr, executive manager of Rutgers University’s career services, there were just 15 government and nonprofit employers at the annual Big East Career Day in Manhattan’s Madison Square Garden; others were kept out to make room for 135 private-sector employers. This year, just 80 private companies signed up for the March 13 event, where 30 federal agencies will be on hand accepting resumes. "The good news is, the Federal Government is definitely hiring,"Kerr says. Still, according to the NACE report, the projected increase is less than 6 % .
Not only are fewer companies hiring, but more of those with openings are offering internships instead of full-time spots. Only a third of on-campus recruiters this year are looking to sign both full-time employees and interns, the report found, down from an average of two-thirds for the classes of 2007 and 2008. And 16% of employers will be hiring only interns, nearly double the percentage that did so last year. "I explain to the students that it’s like taking another course, and paying to take that course," says Middlebury’s executive director of career services, Jaye Roseborough.
What makes the college graduates labor market more troubling according to the last paragraph?
选项
A、Fewer companies are planning to hire.
B、Some companies offer internships.
C、Fewer companies offer full-time jobs.
D、Students have to pay for getting jobs.
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。文章最后一段指出:不但有招聘计划的公司减少了,而且这些有招聘计划的公司中大部分都只提供实习岗位,而不提供全职工作岗位。由此可以推断,提供全职工作岗位的公司的减少使本已经低迷的就业市场更加雪上加霜。故正确答案为[C]。[A]是前面一直在讨论的问题,不是最后一段的中心内容,可以排除;不但今年有些公司提供实习岗位,去年也有公司提供实习岗位,故排除[B];文章最后说明德学院的就业服务中心主任安抚学生,就把眼前的艰难处境当成学习了一门新的课程,并为此交学费,并不是学生们真的要为获得工作机会支付金钱,故排除[D]。
