I talked to our students (which now obviously have a job in software), but they
confirmed this for #Norway: there is little opportunity for student IT jobs,
simply because of the abundance of people with finished education. This allows
companies to be picky for entry levels,

and they do not have to rely on students to fill the gaps. This is so different
to my time as a student, when many of us had good paying jobs working in small
IT shops, marketing agencies etc. It's such a missed opportunity for many
students to learn more about the field they
are studying in. It's also not great for companies, because they are hiring
people with education, but without much practical experience.
