I'm taking about Computer Information Systems not Computer science. You're guaranteed to get a job if you do well in the school's program
NOBODY is giving cats with ANY Computer /IT related experience a job with NO EXPERIENCE and ONLY a degree, UNLESS it is some type of development program. Most "entry" level positions want 2+ yrs experience, this is why getting internships are vital.
Especially when the economy was at its worse you had experienced people taking pay cuts just because they needed income and taking entry level jobs on top of companies who instead of hiring new people just use contractors when they need resources for big projects.
