Looking a Head to Graduation



An article in the April 5, 2015, The Dallas Morning News, “Advice for soon to be college graduates” Metro Creative Connection provides some timely suggestions for upcoming college graduates:

1. Attend your graduation ceremony – You should attend your last academic experience – it is also a networking experience – find out how fellow graduates plan to begin their careers.

2. Enjoy some travel and resting up before you launch a new job or searching for one.

3. Joint an alumni association and take advantage of such an organization to connect with fellow alumni who can be invaluable sources of connections and job opportunities.

4. Consider joining a volunteer organization which may assist you to determine career options.

5. Read and learn new skills particularly using the Internet and social networking.
