美國大學生求職不順賣文憑
Frustrated college graduate tries to sell her college diploma on eBay for $50,000
An underemployed college graduate is selling her diploma and "college experience" on eBay for $50,000 after becoming frustrated with her job prospects after graduation.
一位大學生畢業后并沒有找到滿意的工作,對自己就業前景感到失望的她正在易趣網(eBay)以5萬美元售賣自己的文憑和"大學經歷".
Stephanie Ritter told BuzzFeed that she was purging her room of high school and college paraphernalia when she came across her Florida State University diploma. "I thought this piece of paper has so much worth to so many people, but for a theater major, it couldn't mean less," she said.

斯蒂芬妮·瑞特(Stephanie Ritter)告訴BuzzFeed,當她整理房間里的高中和大學用品時,突然發現自己的弗羅里達州立大學(Florida State University)畢業證書."我認為一紙文憑對許多人而言都很重要,而對于戲劇專業的人來說,同樣如此.與那些大一就中途輟學的人相比,我與他們干著相同的事,也許還拿著一樣的薪資,不同的是我還欠著4萬美元的債務,而他們并沒有."
Ritter said that she graduated college in 2011, and now works as an assistant. She said she found her job prospects with a theater degree to be lacking.
瑞特說她2011年大學畢業,現在的工作是一名助理.她說她發現戲劇專業的工作機會很少.
She is not the only one who has had trouble finding major-related work after graduation. According to a recent study by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, only 27% of college graduates have jobs that are closely related to their major.
她并非唯一一位在畢業后找不到專業對口工作的大學畢業生.根據美聯儲紐約分行(the Federal Reserve Bank of New York)最近的一項調查,只有27%的大學畢業生找到與本專業緊密相關的工作.
Dissatisfied graduates have tried to sell their diplomas before. But Stephanie is selling more than a diploma: She's selling her experience. In her description on eBay, Stephanie describes exactly what "experience" includes:
