....Entry-level jobs typically can't cover the cost of rent, college loan payments, and insurance premiums, all of which are rising faster than wages, so moving back into your parent's house is a smart step toward finding a career that's right for you.
If you don't have to worry about paying rent, you have more flexibility to take a job that feels right but pays very poorly. The rise of the prestigious but unpaid internship intersects perfectly with trend to move back home.
So totally agreed with this. Seriously, we paid so much to get a degree & when we are out to work, we are paid like poor mice. Like seriously a person without a qualification. However, from what I know after entering the workforce, somehow your 'market value' will increase quite high after 1-2 years of working compared to those without the qualifications. Got to really take good care of my piggy bank!
...Myth 5: You'll be rewarded if you do a good job
You'll actually be rewarded only if you're likable. So spend your days trying to figure out what people need and what people want, and how you can help them. Empathy makes you likable....
Make people like you. Seriously? This is working world. Play your game well. Good luck all.

paying so much while studying, but getting paid so little while at job, but guess after workin for 1 or 2 years it would be much better!!
Myth 5...of cos you will be rewarded if you do a good job, when you at job, you should preform your best, no matter how big or small the job is...put everything into it, if you put in a lot of effect in, other people will see it and remember it!!
