For most of us, the only goals defined in the first 20 years of our lives are focused on education and learning. We spend over 10,000 hours at school, university and training institutes, all to build an asset for the next phase of our professional life. But surveys show that fresh graduates right after graduation lack the skills to properly perform almost any job. As a result, most struggle to find employment, pushing them to gloom and despair instead of the bright future they were expecting. This is leading many to confront the question: Is education worth all the time, energy and money being spent on it?
Aseyeh Hatami, entrepreneur and researcher of the job market who founded IranTalent.com and studied the recruitment challenges faced by thousands of local and international companies, will show us how to transform education from a sunk cost to a valuable asset through 4 timely actions.
