In America, the traditional time for graduations is in______. [originaltext]

(1)In America, May and June are the traditional months for graduations. The National Association of Colleges and Employers collects information on the college job market. NACE’s latest survey in March found that employers expected to hire twenty-two percent fewer graduates this year than last. Most blamed the recession. The most recent student survey showed that just(2)one-fifth of those who looked for jobs before graduation have one by now. This is compared to half of students who had looked for a job by this time two years ago. But one difference: fewer of this year’s graduates have started to search for jobs. Still, NACE found no big increase in graduates who plan to stay in school and avoid the job market. About twenty-seven percent said they plan to go to graduate school, compared to about twenty-four percent a year ago. Engineering and accounting graduates were more likely to have started their job search already and to have accepted a job. These are among the best paid professions for people with just a college degree. So how can students increase their chances for a job? The most effective tool is a school’s career counseling center.(3)Counselors can help students with job applications and preparing for interviews. They also let students know about job openings and events like job recruitment fairs. They can also help first-year students decide what to study.
