One of the results of the push to higher education is an oversaturation of the job market with college graduates. As more individuals obtained college degrees, the competition for jobs increased, which can lead to underemployment, where graduates are working in jobs that do not require a college degree, or have jobs that do not align with their fields of study. This oversupply can also contribute to increased pressure on graduates to gain additional qualifications or skills to stand out in the job market.
