2. School-to-work Transition
• Interviews with 5 students searching for jobs
were done
• Interview Questions:
• What is the biggest difficulty in your job/work search?
• How do you tackle it?
• Why do you search job?
• Why do you not start a business there is no job?

3. • Few jobs in the market
• Too much competition
• Pressure of earning
livelihood
• Risk in business
• No capital for
business
• No training for
entrepreneurship
• A lack of central
database for job
seekers
• Searched for jobs of his
interests
• Filled online CV at every
company’s online
database
• Very few investors
• Can there be other
ways instead of
internet for job
search?
• Employers can’t go
through several
resumes for a single
seat
• A central database
with flexible filtration
capability for access
to relevant CVs is
required
• Industry-student
networking events
can reduce the
distance
find a jobGraduate
/student
jobs are few and
risk for business
is huge
