Abstract:
Bachelor degree acquisition is increasingly common, with many enrolling in university programs in hopes of providing a stable financial foundation for later life. However, new university graduates are greatly outpacing careers which mandate a university education, resulting in many of them occupying positions lesser than their expectations, and/or positions which do not mandate a university degree. A sample of 500 Amazon Mechanical Turk workers completed a battery of previously validated scales, and self-reported subjective underemployment / perceived overqualification was examined alongside several personal and organizational outcomes of interest.
