What’s the point of studying if you can’t get hired afterwards?

October 26, 2023

The observation is more than bitter. It would seem that private entities have no confidence in young people, even though they are ready to give everything to acquire the experience so sought after by these companies.

« Qualifications: 10 years of management experience, including 8 as department head, 8 years of… “, this is the (new or old) stratagem used by private companies looking for employees to fill vacant positions within them.

In this scenario, graduates fresh from higher education with all the desire and enthusiasm are left behind. They have to settle for internships which, remember, is quite a fight comparable to MMA to obtain it, for the luckiest, these are fixed-term contracts (fixed-term contracts) which will allow them to have a little experience in their fields, and which unfortunately are only short-lived.

Finally, what’s the point of higher education if you can’t find a job at the end? Can’t 10 years of experience that these companies are looking for be filled by the motivation, rigor, and desire of the young, inexperienced person? Worse still, with recruitment agencies in vogue, the chances of getting a job are dwindling. “ Despite your skills and qualities, we regret not being able to respond to your application because it does not correspond to the profile the client is looking for. “. A message that is found in many emails.

Perhaps the salvation of these young graduates lies in self-employment, because lacking experience, they cannot apply for these offers. But one thing is sure and certain, the experience that these companies want, or rather the coveted employee; to have achieved this experience or expertise, he started somewhere, his chance was given to him. For now, young graduates must find an alternative in order to be able to take advantage of the knowledge they received during their training.
