As dificuldades do administrador ao entrar no mercado de trabalho

Abstract

Due to the increase in the number of undergraduate students in Management, which shifts the supply and demand on the labor market, it has been appeared greater difficulties to obtain a good job position. Additionally, many companies would rather hire workers trained in other fields than those who have major in Management. This imbalance between supply and demand is also influenced by globalization, which creates opportunities to companies operate in other countries and import trained labor. This study aims at analyzing the challenges faced by newly graduated managers when they try to enter the labor market. In order to know their opinion about the market’s demand, and how the education is aligned to this demand, the adopted methodology is the explorative research with data collection via electronic survey. The main results of this research show that alumni indeed face difficulties to get a good position in the labor market, especially those who neither have higher specialization nor language or computer skills; the newly graduated managers also think that companies are likely to appreciate individual skills to hire a new worker. Based on the questionnaire replies, it is also observed that there is a perception among managers that universities are aligned to the to the determinations of regulatory agencies regarding the Management teaching, although it is not enough to provide a good job position to the alumni.
