You went to college, earned your degree, and did everything “right.”
So why does the job search process feel like moving through cement?
Previous generations were able to land a new job without a college degree or by simply going into a place of business and shaking hands and introducing themselves to the Hiring Manager, and introduce yourself. Those days are long gone.
The hard truth? Colleges and universities sell you a dream.
The dream that all you need to do is graduate with a college degree and jobs will be waiting for you.
I wish that were true. Instead, many new graduates face the classic catch-22: How the hell do you land an entry-level job with no experience if (nearly) every job requires experience?
While this paradox is infuriating, new graduates do get jobs.
A lack of traditional experience gives you an advantage.
We will work together to redefine what “experience” you offer and give prospective employers a damn good reason to hire you by flipping the script to focus on what you offer versus what you lack, such as:
- Research experiences and capstone projects
- Relevant internships and other part-/full-time work
- Volunteer experience and campus involvement
