Serveral other studies concurr with the one you quoted.
I agree that graduating students seem to be having more trouble finding work
this year than earlier.
The only thing that I have noticed that could explain this is that the BIG
companies are holding back, trying to get more lean.  There seems to be jobs
in smaller compaines, which do not have the HR facilities that the larger ones
do, and a lot of these positions seem to get advertized and filled through the
grapevine.
I still think there are still a lot of economic opportunities in the computer
science/techonology field.  Get together a few people with a knack for the
technology, someone with a head for business, and some capital; the sky is the
limit...
