Developing skills that will enhance career growth is important to college graduates entering the workforce. According to a recent LinkedIn Workforce Confidence Index survey, they are looking for employers that provide opportunities to learn and practice those new skills.
These new entrants to the workforce want leadership training and continuous growth and development, according to Liz Pavese, director of behavioral science at Berlin-based CoachHub.
Those skills can be acquired through on-the-job projects, stretch assignments, formal mentoring, and learning and development programs so they can advance through the organization, she said.
