> They are good at multi-tasking, as is evident from their ability to take notes in class and check Facebook at the same time.

Am I the only one finding this list disrespectful?

Young graduates are inexperienced. Experience comes with time, not with lists that say that they don't know how to work, think or be.

> Employers care about which courses they took.

In a work environment, people talk about their work experience. Young graduates' work experience is the classes they took.

I find it a bit silly at points as well. Obviously 'AWS' is not synonymous with all 'cloud' technology, but whenever someone references AWS instances I understand they're referencing something not on prem at its core. Which gets the point across.
