I am also in the boat of joblessness.. I graduated this spring from UofS and have been applying like crazy and everyone I talk to tells me the samething "horrible time to be looking for a job, do another year of school..."

I have had COMPANIES tell me that.. lol

edit: I graduated with a four year B.A., Geography Major. Things like Environmental Impact Assessment, Hydrology, Remote Sensing, GIS, Forestry, Climate Change.. etc.. are all topics I studied. Companies love this, but hate the fact I have zero experience.. why do they post jobs in their "recent graduate" section that require 5-10 years experience...?
