It's the never ending circle that I think all students end up at one point or another. When your looking for a job and they ask: 'What experience do you have?' errr well at uni or I worked for a week at...
Your stuck on repeat, you can't get a job because you have no experience and you have no experience because no one will give you a job.
The only solution is an internship or what could now be classed as free labor, its an insane idea in this day and age that a company is allowed to employ someone and have them work for free as they are gaining 'experience' and two weeks is nothing these placements can go on from a minimum of four weeks to six months.
No one seems to see this as a problem in our commodity world working for free after university is expected.
Fair enough I will run fetch you tea and preform such pointless tasks that are suppose to give me experience but is a minimum wage to much to ask for?
What do you think people live off? It use to be that the rich kids would be able to go to university and then would be able to afford the placements and then they would be able to get the better paid jobs, forever keeping us in a society were the rich stay rich.
