COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS AMONG STUDENTS & FRESHERS....

Entering the job market as a student or newcomer can be confusing due to some common misunderstandings. One big misconception is thinking that just having a degree guarantees getting a job. While having an education is important, employers also want to see practical skills and experience. It's crucial for students to do internships, connect with people, and develop skills alongside their studies.


Misconception: Believing that getting high grades in school will get you a job.

Truth: Employers look for problem-solving skills, how well you work with others, and practical knowledge. 


Misconception: Thinking that only big, famous companies are worth working.

Truth: Smaller companies offer unique opportunities for growth.



Misconception: Waiting until graduation to start looking for a job.

Truth: Building a professional network, doing internships, and gaining real-world experience while still in school can make a big difference. 


Misconception: Thinking that soft skills are not as important as technical skills is a mistake.

Truth: Both are valuable and employers look forward to hiring such candidates. 


In short, by understanding and correcting these misconceptions, students can approach the job market with a clearer and more realistic mindset, increasing their chances of success in the professional world.
