Yes this is a figurative. So when they say "step into" they literately mean the graduate is "stepping" into his wings. And when they say "wear them out" they are implying the graduate is going out into the real word (after graduating college).
The whole post in itself is trying to say that college graduates can no longer rely on getting a job with one good company and working your way up to the top position.
