Useful Advice for Students and Almost Students: Applicants, First-Year Students, and Graduates
For those who are just entering university, it is better to listen to the advice of the old-timers. This will help to avoid many problems in the future: University is not a school. Here everything is different: parents are no longer responsible for you and your grades. Now you and only you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. But for the same reason you can become a completely different person. Leave all your previous fears and complexes behind the threshold of school. Start thinking about work from the first days of your freshman year. The earlier you start working on your portfolio, the better your chances of getting a good job quickly after graduation. Start a solid email account, create a resume and make it a goal to add one meaningful item to it every year: a new level of foreign language, a new professional and personal skill, etc.
Attend any seminars and conferences, and attach the certificates immediately to your CV. All this now is the best investment and experience for future employment. Form the right circle of acquaintances. Make friends from very different circles: that way you have a better chance that at least one of them will make it to the top. And that's not a bad prospect for you either. What's more, if you work closely with your classmates, they can help you get ahead in life by going hand in hand with you and forming the right circle. Find out what the university has in store for you. As soon as you enroll, find out what rights, benefits, and opportunities you have, what additional programs/courses/ electives/collaboration with foreign educational institutions the university has, student activities and events, associations. And as soon as you know, be sure to join/enroll/participate, because in this way you can solve several problems at once: make new acquaintances and be in good standing with the university administration.
Be sure to find out whether your university has opportunities for internships. Speak to as many people as possible and to everyone. Be friendly. This promotes socialization and networking, qualities that are essential for future job interviews. Set big goals for yourself. First, the more incredible the goal, the more heights you can conquer, even if you never reach the final goal. Secondly, in the future you will not be so brave and reckless to dare to take risky steps. So now - it's time to take risks, because you have nothing to lose. Separate from your parents. Yes, this is the exit from the comfort zone, which we all so do not want to lose. Only by separating from the parent nest will you be able to scale and grow. Make a list of companies in your industry. Study their requirements, corporate ethics and internal values. Now you can begin the "crusade" to conquer them. Don't worry, you have at least 5 years to try, fail, and try again! Don't be afraid to look pushy and foolish. Water rocks, and successful people love persistent people. The worst thing that will happen to you is that you will never get the job. But you might get it.
