How prepared are you for entering the workforce post-graduation? According to a survey conducted by Intelligent, 81% of business leaders believe that college graduates would benefit from workplace etiquette training.


Here are the largest grievances against college grads:


  • Issues with taking constructive criticism

  • Cell phone usage

  • Difficulty with conflict resolution


These problems are trickier to spot in a remote setting but are on full display in a physical office where new hires have to interact in-person with other employees and higher-ups.


As a response, many employers are opting to provide proper workplace etiquette training for their company. Doing so offers a full transparency of the behavioral expectations jobs have for employees. The goal is to prevent any kind of miscommunication when it comes to establishing workplace norms and culture.


College students—take notes.
