College-educated workers are taking over the American factory floor

This is not true at all, every large Silicon Valley company hires new college grads by the boatload every year. Literally thousands and thousands every single year. It’s mostly only the smaller underfunded companies that refuse to hire new grads because they don’t have the resources to indulge someone who can’t hit the ground running and needs time to ramp up.

Yes that is true, although even those SV MegaCorps hire only a small percentage of the students from a small percentage of schools.

I was not trying to limit my statement to Silicon Valley, where the job market is very robust (although still far from perfect)
