Students' employment possibilities from the students' and the job givers' point of view

LTVyrauja nuomonė, kad studentui rasti darbą neįmanoma, nes dažnas darbdavys ieško jau patirtį turinčio darbuotojo. Šio straipsnio tikslas - sužinoti, kokiais kriterijais vadovaujasi ieškodami darbo kandidatai ir kaip naujus darbuotojus linkę darbinti darbdaviai bei kokios yra studentų įsidarbinamumo tendencijos Lietuvoje remiantis teorijomis ir jau atliktais tyrimais. Autorių atlikto tyrimo dėka siekiama atskleisti, kiek dabartinių Lietuvos studentų dirba, kodėl dirba ir ką apie studentų įdarbinimą mano darbdaviai. Studentai tyrimo metu nusako savo įsidarbinamumo poreikius bei nuomonę apie atlyginimą, ieškomo darbo tipą, iškylančius sunkumus. Norima ištirti ir darbdavių požiūrį į tai, kas svarbiau - įgytas diplomas, ar asmeninės kandidato savybės bei gebėjimas arba tiesiog ką akcentuoja darbdaviai.

Therefore the main aim of the research is to reveal the situation. Two different perspectives were chosen - the students' and the employers' - when analysing the required skills for the candidates and the ones the student applicants for a job actually possess. As a target group of respondents, the students of Management and Economics Faculty of Kauno kolegija/UAS were chosen, as they mainly study managerial specialities and receive direct knowledge and training of how to establish and run a business.
