Fair opportunities for career starters!

Part of the generational present and future should be that young people find fair access to the professional world after studying/training/etc.: - Why is it difficult for young, well-educated adults to gain a foothold in professional life? How can it be that the path to material self-employment remains blocked for a long time, despite good education and x paid or unpaid internships, volunteers, master's degrees? - Why are many universities not linked to industry? - Why do apprentices compete with graduates for jobs and which level of education is the ‘truly right one’? How are the financial statements assessed: Practical and social work experience of the trainee VS analytical problem and solution mentality of the student? - Why are young professionals kept small by older employees and what can a successful cooperation between young and old look like at work? - How are recruitment procedures conducted in companies? Why are the application processes taking too long? Why are applicants invited to up to 3 rounds of interviews and why is not enough feedback given in case of cancellations, which has failed? How can it be that a company invites you to job interviews and then never contacts you again? - Is it possible to make application processes moderate and respectful?
