> I'm currently at Park College, Eastbourne doing AS levels, planning to go onto university, as this is the normal path to take to get a good career.  However, I'm hearing a lot of stories about graduates having serious problems finding work, even after spending ~6 years of their life and thousands of pounds getting a degree.

Before reading any further heres my 2p, get out into the real world of
Work, get a job working the helpdesks and support forums of big/little
companies. Earn your stripes and your scars and learn how to order
equipment, respond to customers, read specifications and meet deadlines.
Ive got a Uni Graduate here and Im still teaching him not to pu thte
paper the wrong way up on the fax machine!


Experience is king, and you can , with effort study for your Degree with
the Open Uni, you will find that many many people have great respect
forthis sought of degree.

So you looking for a job then ?

not "recruiting" but my gawds a face to face works wonders on convincing
the board some days.

Just my 2p Nik
