The disconnect is that can (or want to) hire college graduates for $25K - or preferably as unpaid interns.

They don't want to hire 20year experience engineers for $100K

Where in the Tech Sector do recent grads get $25K? Most internships pay about twice that (if annualized).

Central Japan, for one. And they wonder why our recruiting pipeline sucks... Great opportunity for startups though. If you can pay $40k you'd be making engineers comparatively rich.
