6. PROBLEM STATEMENT:
The stakeholder needs a easier way to find new hires for his
teams and be able to bring new younger minds to the organiza-
tion because the traditional institude needs to be able to change
and grow.
INSIGHT:
It is evident from the stakeholder’s point of view
- students are not prepared for real life work environment.
- students needs work experience before they can be hired for full
time.
- schools and teachers are not teaching what students actually
need to know before sending them out.
- based on his own experiences as a new graduate job searching,
he can still see students today suffereing from the same mistakes.
