I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'this job?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'graduate exercising a stir' is the wordplay.
'graduate' becomes 'BA' (someone with a Bachelor of Arts degree).
'exercising' indicates an anagram (letters exercise or move around).
'a'+'stir'='astir'
'astir' with letters rearranged gives 'rista'.
'ba'+'rista'='BARISTA'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for barista that I've seen before include "Coffee servitor" , "coffee-maker" , "person serving drinks" , "coffee-shop employee" , "Coffee bar server" .)
