College-to-Career Development
A challenging time...
Your Student Might Not Get the Personalized Career Support They Need
As a parent, you want your college student to graduate prepared, confident, and career-ready. But here’s what most colleges and universities won’t tell you: many campus career centers are dramatically understaffed—and that’s making it harder for your student to get the hyper-personalized career support they need to thrive in an AI-disrupted workforce.
The National Reality: Too Few Career Coaches, Too Many Students
According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers (2022), the average student-to-career coach ratio is 2,263 to 1. That means thousands of students often rely on just a handful of professionals for critical support such as resume development, career exploration, professional branding, and interview preparation. This widespread structural limitation makes it difficult for institutions to provide the level of support required for today's college students to identify and capitalize on internship and job opportunities.
The Workforce Has Changed—Has Their College Kept Up?
Artificial intelligence and digital disruption are transforming nearly every industry. Employers today are focused on agility, problem-solving, and digital fluency—not just degrees.
-
86% of employers say entry-level hires still require additional training to succeed in the workplace (YouScience, 2024).
-
31% of employers say hands-on experience is more valuable than academic credentials (12twenty, 2025).
-
Meanwhile, AI adoption is outpacing workforce readiness, creating a widening skills gap and making it harder for new graduates to stand out (DataCamp, 2025).
The bottom line? A degree alone isn’t enough—and without expert-designed career education and one-on-one coaching, many students risk entering a job search in the AI-disrupted, competitive labor market ill-equipped and unprepared.
