Transcript of Empathy map and_problem_statement_jamin
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
• I had an easy transition because of my internship and mentor
• I was blessed to have a mentor• I am really lucky• I applied for internship; 3
accepted out of 20 applicants• I was mentored and encouraged
in how to look for a job during my internship
• Many peers aren’t actively looking for a job because they don’t know how to
• Applied for selective internship; 3/20 accepted• Internship became part-time then full-time job• Encouraged to look for outside opportunities• Mentored in how to apply for jobs• Given challenging/independent work at internship
• College prepares you for technical skills but not on how to apply for a first career position
An Undergrad Senior who made
the transition
• My college mentor helped me get an internship; my intern mentor gave me challenges, taught me how to write a resume, which positions to look for and how to apply
• I feel lucky/blessed to be where I am today because of the people who helped me
• I was scared to apply for a job because I didn’t have an ‘in’ – I didn’t know anyone at the company I now work for
• Many of my peers don’t know how to write a resume or what jobs to apply for
