| More College Grads Want to Work for Tech Firms Over Wall Street (The Atlantic Wire) Posted: 14 Nov 2011 09:20 AM PST The Atlantic Wire - As the Occupy movement perseveres and Google's stock price continues to skyrocket, it's no surprise that American youth don't want to work at investment banks. Citing a survey of 6,700 early-career professionals, The Wall Street Journal reports that nearly one-in-five young workers want a job at Google, making it the most popular potential employer by far. Apple and Facebook rank second and third drawing enthusiasm from 12.7 and 8.9 percent of those surveyed, respectively. You have to scroll down the list of results quite a bit before seeing the top-ranking bank, J.P. Morgan, at number 41. Attracting barely 2 percent of the young work force, Goldman Sachs ranks 46th on the list, right behind Macy's. Does the trend towards tech mean we're on track to reclaim integrity and stability in the American economy? Not so fast. |
