Dear Hiring Managers & IT Recruiters,
When you post a role for a Junior IT Technician and ask for fresh graduates with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, what exactly are your expectations?
How do you expect someone who studied algorithms, programming, databases, operating systems, and theory to instantly master LAN infrastructure, switches, routers, firewalls, servers, ticketing systems, on-site troubleshooting, and enterprise environments—without training?
You say you need someone with an IT background, yet you’re not willing to train.
You say “at least 1 year of experience is required,” yet you hire fresh graduates.
You give 4 days of probation, then accuse them of “not being ready.”
So let’s ask the real question:
Where are graduates supposed to get experience if no one is willing to teach, mentor, or invest?
Junior roles are meant for learning, guidance, and growth.
If you need immediate expertise, that’s not a junior role—it’s a mid-level one.
You don’t build strong IT professionals by skipping training.
You build them by giving them a chance.
