No it isn't. A degree has never just brought you a top job. There's a lot of jobs you cannot get without a degree. But first you need experience in the work field. You don't get that experience in school.

Her vehicle of choice has nothing to do with how difficult it is to get a job in Toronto. I know many young grads applyimg for entry level jobs and still getting told no. she made no mention of making 6 figures right out of school. She simply expressed her frustration in getting a job in her field, in this clip thr show decided to air.

There's no way any of these panelists had student debt, because we live in CANADA, where we all enjoy very affordable tuition. $80,000 is life crushing. And frankly, we all need to acknowledge that for a lot of industries, business in particular, the degree is utterly trash. We all could've done a good job at our first job right out of high school if we applied yourself, almost nothing that we learned for 4 years had any application on our first jobs, and those things that did have application, could have been easily learned ON the job.

The problem also is the post secondary education system is flawed in this country. What I mean by that is these kids go to college/university, get an education and have smoke blown up their butts and are told “oh you walk out of here you’re going to have a job making $80,000 per year”. But that is not reality, what the kids should be told is “you’re going to walk out of here, and start out working low paying jobs in your industry, and if you’re good at it or stick it out long enough, you’ll eventually make $80,000 a year”. Nothing in life is handed to you, you have to work at it, and I think that’s been lost on some of the younger generation. They just want to be given everything. Life doesn’t work like that.

In my personal opinion, I believe post secondary education, to potentially find a job in a specific field is unnecessary because, you dish out a whole lot of money for education, only to find out that when you graduate for that field of work, there are potentially no positions for you, in your realm that you studied. I say potentially very lightly because you may get lucky and find something, don't get me wrong. 😊 You see, I also think, when a class of post secondary is offered, for a specific career field, those who run that program, should have a direct connection with a company already, so that when graduation comes around, those students can jump into the connected company that the program was linked to, and not be searching job postings and forums, for a job in their studied field, you know what I'm saying? :) Just my 2 cents. Lol

The problem is that higher education does not prepare you for the experience needed to get your foot into the door to even have a chance at landing a job after graduation. This is not opinion, as it is fact - more and more university degrees are struggling to find ways to implement this 'experiential learning' component, but it also must be noted that this does not work with all degrees. The degrees that can almost guarantee good pay and a job out of graduation are nursing, engineering and business - and the rest are pretty much 'useless' when it comes to aiming for a job out of graduation. Keep in mind that most universities want students to stay for graduate school to enhance their research profile, so they are not investing in students who have already chosen not to go to graduate school. There are a wealth of factors that play a role here.... university administration and leadership have different motives for students, the times have changed drastically since the day when a degree really meant something, and yes this generation is very different than the last. Therefore, I can understand where each of you are coming from, but it's not as easy as 'oh well, we got through it, so why can't they?'. In fact, that is such a terrible way of looking at things in terms of progress. (No, I am not forgetting that many just don't put in the effort because they believe that doing 4 years of education should just hand you a job - it has never actually been that way, and so that myth needs to be busted for the current generation). I must finish with 1. anyone going to university expecting that a degree is going to make their life, especially in 2023, likely is just living on cruise control and not living in the reality of 2023, but also 2. Sid, if you think that 'we' have not been working 'for free' as you did out of college/university, you clearly are very disconnected from the reality of education in 2023 because the majority of students are forced to work for years for free or on minimal pay before we can actually land something full-time and secure.... try talking to real humans instead of just making assumptions based on a single student who is clearly living in a fantasy driving around in such a vehicle while complaining about money.

I started a small business out of university and have always been flexible as to working arrangements. That said, all such arrangements have so far made financial sense. It's one thing for a job to be located sufficiently close by public transit to my place of residence should such a job require at least some away-from-home work. 2 part-time jobs that began early in 2019 but ended on the week of 8 March 2020 Eastern Time (the week before the Ford Government would declare its original covid state-of-emergency) for slightly different reasons (a bookkeeping one due to a shortage of work unrelated to the then-upcoming pandemic, an educational one due to a need for the relevant institute to downsize its staff in response to the then-emerging pandemic). It's quite another, however, if a job is located far enough away from the nearest bus, streetcar, subway or other train route that provides, from any point in the City of Toronto, frequent enough service that taking transit all the way to an away-from-home job. Last month I took an Uber ride to a medical appointment in Toronto's downtown, having to wait almost 30 minutes for that ride to arrive at my Midtown residence. Although I could've taken the TTC, looking back that day was a good test to determine the feasibility of mixing transit and ridehail services were I to work at an away-from-home job. Should I find a job that requires at least some away-from-home work and should public transit and walking not get me all the way there within a reasonable time period, I see taking Uber or Lyft, at least from home to work, as more practical. That is even with: - Uber and Lyft at times having often put in place surge-pricing (something that may very well happen again) that may see the prices of such rides go up to as much as 300% of what such prices would ordinarily be due to high demand and no legislation in Ontario that sets a limit on such pricing - taxi apps that I've tried that either haven't worked that well or, like the Beck Taxi one, don't allow logging out barring deletion of such apps - no taxi app that I've found that, like the Uber and Lyft ones, allow users to log out if such users want to Should I know that an away-from-home job, taking into account potential Uber or Lyft surge-pricing, not make financial sense, I will not take that job. TBD will then be whether I will know that fact after I have viewed that job but before I have chosen to apply for that job or after I've applied.

This speaks to the lack of character of BT hosts in that they ignore uncomfortable realities in this post. A. Sid can go months without being paid while working full-time; he does get that most people cannot do that. Who's paying his bills during his internship? B. The person in this post isn't asking to be on Breakfast Television and isn't at home not working. She is just looking for a marketing position after paying a considerable amount of money to go to college while working in the restaurant industry (servers work hard, folks, a lot harder than Sid did during his internship, I will bet). C. Just because BT hosts happily wade through the crap to get a job doesn't make it moral to expect others to wade through that crap. Maybe the panel shouldn't have been okay with what they were asked to do just to get a job to pay their bills. This speaks to the lazy arrogance of many who ignore that we should want to make things better, not worse, for younger generations.

The woman was in an expensive vehicle whining about not getting what she thinks she is entitled to. Here's a news flash for the whiner. Your education is not your experience. The education hopefully will help you get a job that will get you some experience. The more experience you have, the better your chances of getting better jobs. Too many people think that everything they want should be handed to them. It does not work that way!!!
