Why would somebody get their masters w/o any experience to go with it? ( Unless you wanted to be a researcher or teacher etc.)..

I'll never understand it.

"oxbridge"?
DId you have a slip there dude and couldn't figure whether to use oxford or cambridge for your fictional anecdote breh?

Im surprised no one else said anything

University of Oxbridge is the greatest university in the galaxy.

My nikka Tyrone got his Masters from Stanvard and can't get a job either:wow:



As much as I appreciate mockery of Nigerian, Oxbridge is actually a very commonly used portmanteau, so he's not necessarily lying just based on that.

So my friend graduated with his masters from Oxbridge last year with a degree in a STEM field.

You figure he's be living the Typical Coli Breh lifestyle, 6 figures, 6 dymes, 6 series.

Nope.

These days he's still in his parents house and unemployed. Blew through his savings and now receives handouts from his parents from time to time.

Dude says the only decent gigs are in finance and boring ass management consulting. Apparently those positions aren't all what they're cracked up to be. A lot of the salaries in those positions have been dialed down since 2008. They aren't paying like they used to.

He's tried looking for work outside of those fields and more along with his major but nobody wants to hire him because he's "overqualified" and has no experience outside of academia.

Apparently the only connections he's made we're with people that have chosen to remain in the UK and go into finance.

It was kinda wild to hear that he's in such a position. Dude's family is connected to a couple MNCs and he still can't get a gig. I mean, he's even good looking, too.

Maybe there's a part of the story that I'm missing, but then again, he could very well just be a victim of the times, despite all his advantages.
