...jobs. But Ford deployed 340 recruiters to find 2,000 new graduates, figures to wind up with only 1,500 or so. Chicago's Inland Steel sweetened its 1966 salaries by as much as 8%, still fell so short of engineers that it began scouring Canadian campuses. Illinois Bell Telephone recruiters confess that "we even hired a theology student last month. He is going into public relations or the commercial...
