Who:  College students that have spent their time and money going through college in order to receive a better education. Although they are receiving a better education in order to get a better future job, the jobs are not always guaranteed and many ask for additional years of experience for an entry level job. What : College is all about narrowing your focus down to major in a specific subject. Once you have all this knowledge on that specific subject and find a job that is hiring for that subject they then ask for more experience even if you have prior knowledge about it. Shouldn't it be the job of the college to provide you with the 'experience' in order to get a job out of college rather than just providing the knowledge. That is what this opportunity is for, it is to provide those years of experience to undergraduates so that you can apply and be accepted to interviews straight out of college. Why: The cause of this opportunity is because students need to spend mos...

My previous assignment had to do with college students that did not have the required experience for jobs once they graduate. The service that I would provide would be some sort of program for each college that would only employ college students that are about the graduate within that major. Specifics of the Service: 1. The service could start Junior semester so that student may potentially have 2 years of experience upon graduating. This service will not be required but will be provided to each student within the major so that each student has the opportunity to gain the experience that most jobs ask for when graduating. This opportunity could be a paid job or something within the school which could then go towards credits. This service is almost provided in the Human Health college where the final semester needs to be an internship, but this is not provided by the school. This job or internship that will be a part of the school will allow college graduates to have the experienc...

College students struggling to find jobs Opportunity: College students are being declined full time jobs because of their lack of experience when in reality they just spent 4 years in college learning about the skills to use in their jobs. - The Who: College students - The What: they are unable to be accepted to jobs because of lack of experience - The Why: college students work hard to go through school to become successful and have a job after and should not be declined because of lack of experience after 4 or more years of learning. Testing the Who: This need is not just specific to college students there are other people that get turned down from jobs because of a lack of experience. What is specific to college students is the fact that they spend money and time to become more knowledgable to be able to become successful and get a job to then be turned down. Not all college students have this need because some may get jobs throughout the semester but this makes it ha...

https://www.wired.com/story/the-first-hurricane-relief-drone-was-ready-to-fly-then-dorian-hit/ 1.      The First Hurricane Relief Drone was Ready to Fly--- Then Dorian Hit a.      Was browsing through my previous opportunities and one was the opportunity after a natural disaster for people that help. b.      This is an opportunity because a natural disaster like Hurricane Dorian the aftermath is so large that insurance or other companies can thrive off disasters that will can provide aid after theses disasters. c.      The customer to this opportunity of a drone that can help during a hurricane would be those who are being hit by the hurricane, for Dorian it would be the Bahamas. d.      This opportunity is not so easy because when a natural disaster hits or is hitting there may be a lot of damage that sometimes can be irreplaceable such as families belongings and...

Former Dorm RA charged in battery at UF https://www.gainesville.com/news/20190911/former-dorm-ra-charged-in-battery-at-uf a 21 year old RA was arrested when he tried to "sexually batter her" in August. The University prepared a statement since it was their dorm that this happened at and was their decision to make this man an RA, UF stated that they place the "highest priority on the safety of its students". This student is no longer allowed on campus. The problem in this story is that there is a system that RA's have to go through in order to become RA of dorms. This system obviously did not see that this man could be a potential issue when being an RA of this dorm and even abuse his power and take advantage of someone within the dorm. This problem is directed towards UF, it is their responsibility to provide safety within the school and if their system is allowing people like this man to pass through and have the authority that he has is a problem that ...

An opportunity that exist is the need of space for more parking within the University of Florida. An opportunity that could arise is a valet system that you could drive specifically to your class and then a valet person drives your car to a parking lot. After the class you could either wait for the valet to bring your car back to you or simply take a bus to the parking lot or walk. The opportunity for more parking will always be an issue and UF is adding more and more parking but the parking location is not changing and will still be far away for most students which is why this valet system could work. This need came from people being forced to park extremely far away from their classes and then having to walk and most likely being late because of the time spent to find a parking spot. I am 100% this opportunity exist but I am not so sure that this could be the solution to the parking problem on campus. Prototypical Customers: 1. Sean, 20, Male Do you experience the need for th...

I would consider my Dad to be an entrepreneur. Growing up with my dad he was working a lot and did not socialize during the week very much because he worked a lot of hours. When I was younger I never really realized what he was doing or who he was working for. Now that I am older I now see what my dad does and how many people he knows in order to be successful. My dad has introduced me to people whether it was a random friend from college or family that we have known for a while but I now realize that my dad has created businesses with them or has invested in other business such as restaurants or his newest investment which would be in a Canadian restaurant called St-Hubert. I consider my dad to be a successful entrepreneur because he has taken his skills to his own work and has also applied it to other jobs and life because he believes in himself and knowns a lot of information so he knowns how to deal with people and how to manage a team and himself in business. I enrolled in this ...
