Salaries for New Grads Inch Higher; Workplace Flexibility Sought
In perhaps another encouraging sign in the job market the National Association of Colleges and Employers released data that showed salaries inched up for the graduates of the class of 2012.
While those graduates in engineering, computer sciences and business led their classmates, graduates in humanities and the social sciences, also saw their salaries climb modestly.
Still, once the newly minted grads reach the workplace, one of the perks that that has drawn increasing attention is that of workplace flexibility. Recently Ken Matos at the Work and Families Institute and Hannah Seligson writing for The New York Times addressed this issue.
Is workplace flexibility growing increasingly common? Or are employees now increasingly recognizing, there is a life outside work?
