以下是引用09change在2009-1-10 16:44:00的发言:02年那次危机,到2004年才开始恢复,06~07的就业形势最好。如果这次也是如此,那么2010年可能开始恢复,得到至少2011或者2012年才能到就业最好形势 但按照危机平均7年一次来说,大家的职业人生都得遇到好几次经济危机;不可能每次都要等到经济高峰才行动。大环境是一个重要因素,但自己的努力和选择有时更重要 I do not agree with you on the above topic. IT bubble burst started around 2001 and ended in 2003 or so, and the impact on job placement was already very significant: take the Yale SOM, a very good program, as an example: the percentage of students who had job by graudation was less 50% for the class of 03 always remember, the number is for all students. This does suggest that for a Chinese student without working permit, the chance was far less than 50%. If you plan to work in the U.S. after graduatioin, my suggestions would be: 1. only apply top 20 program 2. have a backup plan |
