DEBATE: ARE GRADUATES FROM TOP UNIVERSITIES NOWADAYS MOSTLY DRIVEN BY MONEY?
ARE GRADUATES FROM TOP UNIVERSITIES NOWADAYS MOSTLY DRIVEN BY MONEY?
Graduates go for prestige and expected career paths, and are not merely motivated by money
Graduates with excellent grades especially those from top universities sometimes feel pressured to enter careers that they are not really interested in. Family and peer pressures, as well as societal expectation lead them to go for safe and secured careers which promise good pay and benefits, though they are not really after the benefits package. Having titles such as "Investment Banker", "Management Consultant", "Business Analyst" and "Financial Analyst" certainly sound more glamorous and prestigious than "Teacher", "PhD Student", "Researcher" or "Administrator". This is especially true for graduates from elite universities as they have to justify their choice of careers.
