Jerry Brown On California Budget Shortfall: 'We Will Have To Go Much Farther' With Cuts (VIDEO) (Huffington post)

posted on May 9, 2012 at 11:01:00 pm
When Serena Whitecotton, 22, walked into Bank of America last month, she encountered a high school classmate working as a teller. It was another reminder that she could not find a job. "I was just embarrassed," Whitecotton said. "The worst thing is having to explain why I'm in Burbank and why I don't have a job and why I'm at the bank at 1 in the afternoon." Since graduating last May with a grade-point average of 3.5, experience working at her school newspaper and a degree in communications from California State University in Fullerton, Whitecotton said she has applied for more than 400 journalism and public relations jobs.
