How did that work out for Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg?
Anyway, it's a drag at any level of education to not have a job, but there are plenty of unemployed people even with postgraduate degrees. More worrisome, perhaps, is that degrees are not good proxies for good performance on the job,

so instead any smart employer newly hiring a job applicant will be giving that job applicant a work-sample test. It's possible for young people with a computer science degree to fail to get past a coding test for a programming job, so even some of the most desired college degrees are not a guarantee of employment.
