College Students Mistakenly Believe They're Ready for the Workplace!!!

Managers are unhappy with school graduates and are saying; they are not adequately prepared for the world of work. Even with a loaded curriculum; our institutions today are not preparing students for the real world. 
There are a lot of graduates who after finishing college still feel unprepared. They feel a great sense of lack of confidence in how well college has prepared them for work. They also feel that college did not prepare them for the real world. 
School does not teach corporate skills, and as a result graduates are lost in the corporate world. 
University must align their courses with the changing job demands and focus on those perquisite skills like interpersonal skills, problem-solving and team work All sectors must come to together including universities, managers and job seekers to find immediate solutions and stop failing our nation’s students. 
More companies must offer internships programs for recent graduates to help get them hands-on experience without exploiting their labor. 
Universities should teach students how to think, reason, create and survive in the real world.
