    Yes, it loses value when there's big gaps between when you graduated if you weren't doing anything relevant in between. For example, if you worked as a cashier for several years then you're not going to be as competitive as a fresh grad with the same degree in a professional business career position. In your case, you need not worry because April was not long ago at all. But if you're in the same rut come next April, then it's time to start worrying.

    not really, unless you spent a long time out of it's area and want to return back to it. After your first job, the most important thing on your resume is your work experience. Where your degree is from also plays a huge role.
