Feedback

In this article, I get some useful information. Nowadays, the competition will be the most intense to get jobs. The graduates want to get job in the downturn, they have to get skills and work experience first.
The experience is what the majority of employeers want. Thus the companies don't want to provide fully trained to the fresh graduates. And education does not prepare for a real world challenges. the good mark cannot make people living better and ensure will have a succeed career. therefore, many univerisities provide and offer students the placements during their studies and help them to enhance the employability skills into courses.
