Yeah, its for young people typically , those with no mortgage or car payments. The cost of an undergrad in Canada is also far less than the USA. I don't know how youth is expected to recover from a debt burden coming close to six figures that bares an interest rate of 5% +. Increasing job qualifications combined with salaries that are not keeping pace with those expected qualifications seems like an insurmountable setback for youth.

They will benefit from one of the largest cash transfers in history when the boomers die, and smaller Gen X will not be able to fill the talent gap the Boomers will leave in the market so there will be opportunity. Its shitty now but in 10 years it will be different.

If I was young that would be a good offer provided it was only 40 hours a week and i would have time to the degree, internship, etc.

Grad school was tough AF.

Statistically personal anecdotes have no statistical relevance.

Credentials help a lot. Lots of expensive letters after your name. Get the interview.

I mean for certain jobs yes that is a requirenment and there is not going around that. But there are alot of jobs especially business, sales, trades which don't require phd's. Attitude is number#1, heck I myself gotten jobs which I had to figuire out how to do after I got the job. Most people are not go getters they rely on their shiny cv to do all the talking for them.
