( ontmued from Page 'B
velopment and Placement
Services at Michigan State
University concluded that
there is a surplus — too many
college graduates for too few
positions — of people in ad
vertising, journalism, psychol
ogy, theater and political sci
ence teaching
But the career placement
service predicted that employ
ee shortages may exist for the
food sciences, mentally hand
icapped teachers and physics
forestry and medical technol
ogy fields, making them good
areas to go into
Positions listed at a "near
balance." meaning there are
an equal number of graduates
for the job openings, include
agribusiness and natural re
sources, vocal music teach
ing, biophysics, economics
and marketing
Jobs in technology court
selmq child development ge
ography. nutritional sciences
and foreign languages are
considered adequate with
there being a few more gradu
ates than positions
Additionally. Michigan
State University reported that
SKILLS

banking professionals
People skills and written
communications are the quali
ties most in demand
TECHIES GET AHEAD
Rockwell International
Corp projects that |Obs and
technology are changing so
rapidly that only 50 percent of
the people entering the work
force during the next decade
will have the knowledge to fill
the new positions
That means workers with
strong technical and scientd
ic backgrounds stand to bene
fit most from the labor short
age And if their writing and
communication skills are up
to par. they'll be even more
marketable
Oregon |)ail\ Emerald
the government is expected
to hire 287 percent fewer peo
pie in the next few years, and
elementary and secondary
school systems are expected
to hire 9 2 percent fewer grad
uates
But, say the experts, the
good news is that for those
recent graduates who do find
lobs, they can expect to get
paid about 3 percent more for
their work than graduates of
years past making an average
salary for a recent graduate
about $26,500
For those people having
trouble finding a |ob. the Uni
versity's Career Planning anti
Placement Services offers
several services to students
and University alumni
During fall term a class
called Career and Lite Plan
rung' allows students to ex
amine |Obs that they are suit
ed for and a class
called College to Career
helps students develop the
skills needed to help them
conduct a successful |0b
search
The placement service also
holds several workshops each
term to help students write re
surues polish interview skills
and conduct a successful |Ob
search The center also has
an employer tile and two com
puter files full of companies
who are hiring, for students to
look through
Smith recommends that
students also put their name
and resume into the center s
resume book which ern
ployers browse through when
looking for employees
The center also has staff
members who will individually
go over a student s resume
and otter the student sugges
tions on how to improve it. or
give him or her advi e on how
to better go about getting a
job
Student Cara Murock. who
has a master s in physiology
exercise said her |ob search
is turning out to be a lot of
work She said -.he read that
getting a |Ob takes searching
fulltime for two to six
months
And, she said she is most
ly trying to tit her degree and
interests into the job market
But with employers educa
11on requirements getting
more hefty, she said she does
not think a master's will be all
that helpful
