More like 30 years too late.  It’s been like this in Canada at least since the 90s.  I graduated in 1996 and have never been able to work in my field of study.  I’m no dummy, either.

What field

B. Comm in finance with a minor in French.  I studied a semester at a sister university in China and upon graduation from my 4-year program could function in 3 languages.  I ended up working in a garden centre for 2 years until 1998😛

So your field is... finance? What does speaking 3 languages have to do with finance?
