My research indicates that fresh grads will probably do better generally in the economy than older workers. Many employers have a lot more positions at entry-level than at higher levels. That's tough on seasoned job seekers, where specialization is sought, but good news for grads with marketable skills.

Feel free to quote anything I have posted at www.career-hunter.info, it's a free service I have run since leaving a large firm that markets career services.
