Starting salaries continue to fall for college graduates in many of the top hiring fields. But there’s some good news for business undergrads: accounting and finance students are among the most sought-after by employers.
Finding a job, flourishing on the job and moving into a better job demand plenty of work -- especially during a jobless recovery. If you're looking for a job you'd better have friends. The top way people find new jobs is referrals by friends. The U.S. financial crisis has caused fear in the boardroom and that unease trickles down to every worker.
