AUSTIN JOB PICTURE

In a brutal job market, a college degree is no longer = protection

By Claudia=20 Grisales
AMERICAN-STATESMAN=20 STAFF
Sunday, March 15, 2009

In a more robust economy, Anne Danish would be a dream hire.

The Austin resident has more than 25 years of managerial experience,=20 specialized knowledge in the often complex world of insurance and a = bachelor's=20 degree.

But since she lost her job in November, Danish has applied for more = than 85=20 jobs, competing in some cases against hundreds of applicants for a = single job.=20

And it seems to be getting only tougher, despite her experience and=20 educational background.

"It's as though a dry spell hit in January and February," Danish = said. "And=20 this month, the jobs are not there."

Danish may be confronting a new reality in the brutal job market: A = college=20 degree, unless it is a master's or doctorate, is no longer protection = against=20 unemployment.

"People with advanced degrees will have an easier time navigating = this=20 recession," said Brian Kelsey, director of community and economic = development=20 for the Capital Area Council of Governments. "In previous years, if you = had a=20 bachelor's degree, the odds of finding another job were pretty good. But = this=20 time around is a different experience."

Kelsey analyzed local job data, including Bureau of Labor Statistics = data and=20 forecasts on more than 700 occupations from Economic Modeling = Specialists Inc.=20

His conclusions: Jobs available for people with bachelor's degrees or = less=20 education are likely to shrink this year as the Central Texas employment = picture=20 deteriorates. Meanwhile, jobs that require advanced degrees are likely = to grow,=20 albeit slightly.

In a tough job picture, of course, no one is guaranteed safety. Last = month,=20 chipmaker Spansion Inc. laid off experienced engineers and executives in = Austin,=20 as well as front-line manufacturing workers.

The chaos in the financial industry has put plenty of M.B.A.s out of = work.=20

But based on Kelsey's analysis, the number of Central Texas jobs that = require=20 a bachelor's degree is expected to fall 1.1 percent this year, to = 176,845. The=20 picture wasn't much better for jobs that require a degree plus = experience, or=20 long-term on-the-job training. In both cases, available jobs are = expected to=20 fall 1 percent. Jobs that require an associate degree are expected to = fall half=20 a percentage point to 35,716.

Meanwhile, jobs that require a doctoral degree will increase 1.6 = percent to=20 19,360, while jobs that require a master's degree will increase 1.2 = percent to=20 15,810 this year.

"For workers with less than an advanced degree, it's going to be more = of a=20 struggle," Kelsey said. "In contrast to previous years, when workers = without=20 postsecondary education could rely on construction or sales, for = example, for=20 relatively high-paying jobs, there is really no obvious place to turn = right now=20 for those same opportunities."

Austin's job market is in better shape than in many other cities, but = it is=20 getting worse.

The local unemployment rate in January was 6.4 percent, a five-year = high. An=20 onslaught of layoffs at the start of the year meant that 55,700 area = residents=20 are out of work, up 61 percent from January 2008.

February and March brought more local cuts, including several hundred = last=20 week at Dell Inc. Kelsey said he has also found that it will be tougher = for=20 workers without post-high-school education to make a so-called living = wage,=20 which currently stands at $16.27 an hour in the Austin area.

The number of jobs that pay such a wage for workers without college = degrees=20 or training certificates is projected to decline 1 percent to 140,411 = this year,=20 Kelsey said.

Historically, there has been an inverse relationship between the = level of=20 educational attainment and the unemployment rate for people with those=20 qualifications, said Bernard Weinstein, director of the Center for = Economic=20 Development and Research and a professor of applied economics at the = University=20 of North Texas in Denton."The higher the educational attainment, the = less likely=20 that person is to be unemployed," Weinstein said.

However, as the dramatic economic downturn continues, that is less = likely to=20 be true, he added.

"This recession is so pervasive and so broad and so deep that it is = affecting=20 just about every industry and every occupation, regardless of your = educational=20 attainment today," he said. "None of us are insulated from the winds of = this=20 downturn. In the great recession of 2008 to 2010, everyone is going to = be=20 affected."

Danish, who was vice president of operations at her last job, isn't = sure that=20 applicants with a master's or doctoral degree have a better shot in the = job=20 market currently.

Danish contends it has to do with money. Last week, she came across a = job ad=20 where the employer told applicants to be reasonable with their salary = requests.=20

"There's a large pool of people out there with 30 years, 10 years or = five=20 years of experience," she said. "It really all boils down to who can go = the=20 cheapest and assume the most responsibilities."
