Paper Abstract:
|
This paper sheds light on the challenge in the Information Technology (IT) and Software Engineering (SE) industries where
computer science graduates face a Catch-22 situation, requiring job experience for employment but lacking opportunities
to gain it. The literature background and case study examine the demands and dynamics of the IT job market. The case
study outcomes are aligned with the insights drawn from the literature. Hence, this paper offers a nuanced exploration of
the elements that define a successful applicant profile in the IT sector as well as valuable insights to guide both candidates
and employers in navigating job interviews. Focusing on the critical aspect of limited job experience, this study advocates
for a strategic alignment of skills transcending formal work history. The gained insights guide both candidates, educational
institutions, and employers in navigating the complexities of IT job interviews and contribute to the development of a
workforce prepared for future challenges. |
