Transition is an on-going process that happens with the individuals at different stages. From College to Industry, it’s a lifelong learning and biggest transformation. This transformation marks the starting of the adulthood. Although, this transition from College to Industry is very exciting for a student because they get to earn money and become independent to decide their own expenses. But this, all comes with lots of responsibilities and duties. They have to sacrifice their carefree attitude of the campus and adopt the daily Industry routine. This transition, is very crucial and involves lots of planning.
