Being “job ready” (whatever that means) is a side-effect and a byproduct of a university education, not the end. The telos is to teach you how to learn and think well. In this regard Racket is almost as good as you can get. (I’d personally rank the Shplait language (new; implemented in Racket/Rhombus) as best for teaching.)
Anyone who learns Racket will have learned ways of deconstructing problems that will make them far superior in problem solving to those who learn only e.g. Java and only know how to do things the OO™ way.
