All the studies done so far say that employers prefer entry-level employees who are not vocationally prepared (except for the obvious accounting, engineering, etc. types of careers). - Very untrue in many areas. And will be more untrue with lots of foreign proffessionals going back to their countries. Nope, nobody would hire the one who can read and write into my department, nor to my H’s place of employment. These is way too unrealistic expectations for kids, very prone to failure.
