In this economy, businesses are more demanding and more particular than ever when choosing employees because they do not have extra dollars to waste on a bad hiring decision. As a result, the hiring process is tougher and the overall job market is much more competitive than in past years. At the time of this writing, 7.2% of college grads are either unemployed or under-employed.
