Mad version of this in the Indo – where, because the percentages of students progressing had changed from 77% to 76%, they write a whole article on ‘why have the youth given up on third level?’. If ever a profession needed better third level education …
They need those clicks.
They aren’t journalists anymore, they’re just glorified copy and pasters trying to garner as many clicks as possible.
This is something that Ireland has done really well. We don’t have many natural resources or a huge population so by upskilling our youth we are attractive to FDI (along with low tax, EU/Euro membership, English speaking, location, stable politically, no extreme weather).
The downside of having a lot of well paid people is inflated prices for everything which is not good for everyone else.
Hopefully they’ll pick the right courses…
Last they want is to 40 with seven years education and an income more befitting a graduate like me.
I certainly career guidance has improved since my time.
