Summery:
The employment rate for students expected to graduate from universities next spring stood at 62.5 percent nationwide as of Oct. 1, down a sharp 7.4 percentage points from a year earlier, a government survey showed. The figure is the third-lowest ever, ahead of a 60.2 percent in 2003, and reflects the economic slowdown, according to the survey conducted by the ministries of education and labor.

Impression:
就職氷河期というのは本当に怖いです。私も内定をもらえるように資格などをとっておこうと思いました。

New words I learned:
grads:大学の卒業生 employment rate:就職内定率 ministries of education and labor:文科省と厚労省 reflect:反射する
