  • New College Grads Face Competitive, Lengthy Job Searches
    4 hours agoNewsmakers
    Ryan Fitzpatrick didn’t take the easiest path in planning his post-graduate life. As a senior majoring in finance at the University of Missouri-Columbia, he started his job search in January by going to career fairs on campus but didn’t find any of the companies recruiting at MU to be a match. “A lot of companies recruiting at Mizzou are huge corporations, so it’s hard to get a big role in one of those,” Fitzpatrick said. “Plus, most of those companies were looking for graduates to come to St. Louis, and I was looking to go more to the Kansas City side.” Not having any luck with MU resources, Fitzpatrick turned to a neighbor who works for a staffing company just a week before graduation. There, he found spark of hope. He says he now has a promising prospect in Overland Park, Kan.-based Shaner Appraisals. Fitzpatrick is especially attracted to Shaner because it’s a smaller company with less than 50 employees, the sort of small firm he’s wanted all along.

    Turkey’s historically marginalized Kurdish community has been largely absent from the anti-government protests that drew thousands to Taksim Square in Istanbul. “Turkish protests, Kurdish indifference,” read a headline at the Kurd.net Web site this week above an article by Kani Xulam, a Washington-based Kurdish activist. “Do we not want to curb the power of sultan wannabe prime minister of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan?” Mr. Xulam asked. “Apparently not.” “In Taksim Square, where are the Kurds?” asked Jenna Krajeski in a New Yorker blog. “With some notable exceptions, Kurds, usually Turkey’s most robust anti-government protesters, had been absent,” she wrote.
