🎓 Are your interns and graduates lacking in confidence, professionalism and teamwork skills?
A recent Financial Times article (linked in the comments below) shed light on the unprecedented challenges that current and incoming graduates are struggling with. We have noticed, much like the companies we work with, that interns and incoming graduates say they are:
❎less confident,
❎prefer not to speak up in meetings,
❎less collaborative
❎less keen to network.
These problems are exacerbated by the new world of hybrid working we find ourselves in. As we are all trying to navigate online communication, interns and graduates are at a larger disadvantage as they have fewer opportunities to practice the important communication skills which they seem to be lacking.
