Good news, Unemployed College Grads of America. Go get your mom. We’ll wait.

You know how hard it is to find a job these days, even with that fancy (and expensive) college degree? If you read the news, which is what you must be doing with all the free time you have, you might think that your career and your entire future are slowly crumbling with every rejection letter.

But it turns out that this isn’t the first time grads have been stuck in a recession hiring slump. And you know what? The grads who were facing the same problems you’re facing today – in 1982 – mostly turned out okay. They started slow, but eventually opportunities opened up that allowed them to get into their career groove.

So stay smart, friends, and don’t lose faith.

Need another shot in the arm? Let Kathryn and Amanda take you through the virtues of accepting an imperfect first job.
