There was a guy at work saying that there are lots of people who have double degrees who don't get jobs, and he was basically going on about what a waste of money it was.
I'm not doing a double degree so that it'll help further my career prospects. I'm doing it because I want to learn. I want to gain knowledge, whether it ends up being useful in my future career is beside the point. Three years is just such a short time, I'm not even sure if after the four years of my double degree I'll be finished. I may stay in university, I might do something at TAFE or I may go out and get a job. I'm not sure yet, but I'm not only at university to get a job, I'm there because I enjoy what I'm doing any I enjoy learning.
End of story.

don't stress. i'm finishing at the end of this year, and have no idea what i want to do - except for the fact that i DO NOT want to do what i have been studying.
you have so much time on your hands, and the likelihood of anyone walking straight into their dream job, whatever that may be, is little to none to start with. and then it could be the little crappy jobs that you end up liking better anyway.
thanks steph. : )
