Although this article is aimed at readers in the UK, it is rather reassuring to know that people are successfully finding jobs in and around the UK. The article also mentions how having a Masters degree in what you do may give you the extra "boost" in getting hired. As a grad student, this is nice to know... I should hope that my MFA would be useful in getting a job!
