Students who have completed their undergraduate studies often aspire to work in positions that are not at the entry-level level of the organization, since they come to work as academics. They expect the promotion process to be fast, as well as the pay rise. Often, their expectations do not correspond to the reality, in which they are tested not only according to the potential but also according to the actual employment experience.

In cases where the gap between expectations and actual experience is large, students who have just entered the free market and have the desired certificate, encounter negative answers, until they are forced to adjust the jobs to which they apply for employment experience.

Sagit Bitan, VP of Recruitment and Placement at the Maof Group, which deals with human capital, recruitment, guidance and counseling: "Unfortunately, a large part of the curricula do not really qualify for actual work, so upon graduation The actual position, in the field they chose "'.

Thus, students can direct themselves to one occupational field or another, and understand What are the requirements in each field of practice, and what are the channels of promotion, "adds Bitan.

Participation in professional groups and forums is important.

It is important to know the employer and the job before the interview in order to succeed in the process.

Along with the employer, you must recognize your personal asset basket, with which you reach the employer, such as: personal characteristics and professional skills (skills and abilities).

In the resume document and during the selection process, emphasize the academic experience you bring, and if there is practical experience (participation in hackathons, projects, etc.), it is important to emphasize it as well.
