What CareerProfessor does for your Institution.
Current Situation
According to International Student Barometer, 63% of graduates need more help finding employment. This is striking because it means that a large fraction of students are not being given the level of support they expect. Students do not feel employable. Almost half of graduates (49%) feel ill-prepared for the world of work. Needless to say, this is not what they had in mind when starting their degree. A gap between expectations and reality has emerged, and in many cases, so has disappointment.
How can we fix this?
More information on the job market and knowing how to access it will ease the transition from being a student to finding a job. CareerProfessor does exactly this: closing the gap between education and the world of work. By providing job hunting tips & tricks for over 40 countries and using a gamified way of presenting information on doing business, social interaction and job hunting, makes people aware of what is required to get hired. Better employability outcomes do not just benefit the student; they also ensure universities have satisfied graduates.
