Summary

This blog explores why students and fresh graduates often struggle to secure internships and entry-level opportunities despite having degrees, certificates, and technical skills.

The article explains the gap between what students believe employers evaluate and what recruiters actually look for during initial screening. It highlights common reasons CVs are rejected and emphasizes the importance of verifiable proof through practical work, projects, portfolios, and contributions.

Changes

  • Added Blog 1 MDX article
  • Fixed reading time calculation/display in blog listing and metadata files (blog.js and blog-meta.js)
