PROBLEM STATEMENT!!!STAKEHOLDER: !(Sophie, a confident young woman, easy to talk to, trustworthy, degree-holding communicator, who is keen to get a high demand job) !need a way to !NEED: (perform diverse challenging job-related tasks in a short time period) !because !INSIGHT: (understanding her strengths and discovering her passion earlier will help to define the best career path for her regardless her career choice .)  !

Page 3: Prototype and test storyboard

My 3 solutions to the problem: !Team up with an experienced worker. - (The most practical idea) : Usually interns are involved in low-skilled or simple tasks, working with a experienced worker and be involve in a more challenging tasks will give him/her a estimulating start and confidence. The mentor should dedicate some time to guide the graduate toward learning the skills required for the job. !Participate in a skill led program within a company. - (My favorite idea) Creating a skill-led training program within a company is a way to have a effective structure that could help graduates and currents employees to acquire the skills needed quickly in this fast changing world. !Play a game to adquire job-related skills in a univesity lab - (the most disruptive idea) Create a game for graduates to test their ability to learn and improve their performance. They will receive a challenge that will help them to learn one or many skills while working in a Simulated Work Environment.

It  is  amazing  to  be  working  without  

experience  and  have  less  lectures.  

My  employer  is  used  to  hire  students  so  If  I  make  a  

mistake  I  do  not  worry  to  much.  I  just  try  fix  it  and  

learn.
