As the economy shifts to a more stable and growing job
market for graduating students, companies are once again preparing for a
competitive job market to identify and hire the next top talent for their
organizations. With an increased importance on analyzing data, problems
solving and critical thinking, new assessments are being developed to help
companies better assess future employees readiness for the “real world”.
Some of these measurements focus on the student’s institution and how prepared
the university prepared graduating students, while others assess an
individual’s capabilities in this area. One assessment, the
Collegiate Learning Assessment, measures the incoming academic ability of the
institution the student attended.
Whether you agree with this or not, more and more companies
are using this type of assessment similarly to how schools evaluate SAT scores
for incoming freshman. To best prepare for that next step, we
encourage you to review the latest information available to make sure you are
best suited for the economy you are about to enter. The skills
mentioned above along with communication and interpersonal skills are among the
most sought after by employers regardless of the industry or job.
Get prepared now!
