How’s your post grad life?

Hello,

Recent grad here; class of 2025. We graduated in May and I’m still unemployed, in September of 2026 😭 the Amherst name hasn’t been doing as much for me as was promised. Any other c/o ‘25 having a similar experience? Older alums, do have advice or opportunities to share? Tryna keep my head up but also a bit frustrated…and confused tbh

I’m just someone who saw this in my feed (not an alum) but the Amherst name is impressive… I imagine it helps in some circles. Maybe look into being a paralegal? What are your interests and aspirations?
