When students begin looking for a college or a university, the first things they usually look for are basic criteria such as size, location, and the overall right fit. However, many students going through the college search process today have aspirations of securing their dream job after graduation. With more than 10 million people unemployed in the United States, the idea of finding a job especially in a pandemic, can be overwhelming.

To help give some unfiltered insight into how the Mount was named in the top 10% of colleges and universities nationwide in terms of the long term earnings for a four year degree we are joined by Clare Tauriello, Director of the Career Center at Mount St. Mary’s University.
