I have been looking for a job for past 5 months now. Now whats so big deal about it. There are lakhs of youths in India who are doing the same.
I was talking to one of my friends the other day about the job hunt since he too is looking for one. He and I also discussed about another friend who again is looking for a job. The catch here is that all 3 of us have Post Graduate degrees in our fields with some level of industry experience and all 3 are sitting jobless. It made me wonder as to what is the point of attaining these qualifications when we still are in the category of people who are simple graduates or not even that. Why did we put in extra years of our life studying when we are all at par with them. Why this struggle of entering a premier institute, competetive exams, etc etc.
I know this time of not having a job is not going to go on forever and our qualifications defintely will give us an edge over the others, but just a thought that crossed my mind while talking to my friend.

You make an important point. Increasingly qualified people with no jobs is one very disturbing fact.
The minimum entry requirement for jobs is increasing at one end.. at the other end automation is reducing jobs. :)
