Navigating the job market as a recent graduate

Navigating the job market as a recent graduate

The shift from university to the professional world is a thrilling yet challenging time for many graduates. It’s not uncommon to find the job market intimidating, particularly when you're competing against candidates who already have been in the workforce for years. This blog post aims to guide students and recent graduates on how to enter the job market more efficiently.

Finding your first job as a fresh graduate can seem overwhelming at first glance. However, it's important to remember that there are tools and resources available that can help simplify the process and boost your chances of landing your dream job. One such resource is the Career tool in Orbi, a feature designed to aid students in their exploration of various career opportunities.

In the current digital age, there are countless job advertisement platforms available. Yet, most of these platforms cater to a broad audience, including experienced professionals. This broad focus often results in stiff competition for entry-level roles, which can discourage recent graduates from applying. The Orbi app, however, offers a different approach. It focuses on connecting students and recent graduates with businesses that advertise internships, traineeships, and entry-level roles. These businesses value and appreciate the fresh insights and innovative ideas that students bring to their teams.

By establishing partnerships with a diverse range of businesses, Orbi provides a platform for companies to advertise job opportunities directly to their desired audience: students and recent graduates. Companies using the platform can select which academic programs align with their job posts, ensuring that the applicants are a good fit for the role. As a student using the app, this gives you the confidence to apply for positions that are relevant to your education and skill level. You won't feel too junior or inexperienced compared to other applicants, because these businesses are actively seeking candidates just like you.

Don't get discouraged by the job market. Instead, look for job opportunities tailored for students and recent graduates. Explore the Orbi app and take the first step towards launching your career.
