How are we supposed to get industry experience otherwise?

Businesses aren’t hiring without a degree unless you have four years of industry experience to replace the degree.

Plus, we get an internship during college to get some of both.

Still don’t get hired after graduating.

It’s fucked!

Where and when you're searching plays into it.

If you're looking for postings, you'll have an easier time finding a job, but a harder time getting it, because there's so much competition.

If you're searching right after graduation, so's the rest of your class, and you have to compete with them.

If you're hitting up relevant companies in hopes that they can hire you, you'll have a harder time finding a place with an opening, but once you do, the competition is near zero. You need only prove you're a good fit.
