Graduates ............... where to?

Hundreds of thousands of new professionals came down the aisles with their tickets to the real world. These young professionals with all their idealism and enthusiasm plunge into the jungle with high hopes for better lives only to be confronted with the more difficult phase in their lives -  Nowhere else to go -  They encounter "NO VACANCIES". "FREEZE HIRING" every where they go. They end up employed as call center agents, clerks, typist and so on........ there is so much unemployment, underemployment even with the government's efforts to create jobs for the thousands of young people. Others opt to go overseas just to have a job. The business world is a good resource if only they too can genuinely do their civic social responsibility- share their resources- hire these young people.

Dear graduates, the government is open to hiring, you just have to find your niche and excel in what you do. Do not lose hope. If you did not make it in one interview go for another. Do not be dismayed that is not the end of the world. That job is not meant for you because there is something better for you out there, find it. I know someone -very dear to me who failed her exams for 3 times but she never gave up. She cried countless times for those failures... but her spirit to fight propelled her to do better... the determination to make it kept burning in her heart.... that was the best part. She is now holding a prestigious position in a government agency.

So dear graduates, the point is stay fighting... keep going. Find your way in the jungle and one day, you will reach the place you want to be. To all of you ....GOODLUCK!
