If you've recently completed your post-secondary education and you're wondering what's next, this episode is for you. This period after graduation can be full of uncertainty and stress, as you try and navigate your next steps to employment in "the real world." We talk to four employment experts (Abraham Asrat - Manager, Employer and Alumni Engagement at UBC, Deanne Esdale - Communications Lead, Career Education Specialist at SFU, Rosie Forth - Job Developer & Coordinator at Drive Youth Employment Services and Marcus Tang - Youth Case Manager at WorkBC Centre North Vancouver) about their advice for new grads kickstarting their careers; covering how important it is to normalize uncertainty, what kinds of resources are out there, how you can stay connected during COVID-19 and more.
