Summer Graduation 2017: What Uni Graduates Need to Know

Summer graduation season is upon us and uni students who toiled for years will finally reap what they sowed. After your graduation cap has been hung up, what will you do next? Are you joining the work force or furthering your education? As Essay Writer cares for students who work hard and value education, allow us to give you tips and pieces of advice.

When you have left the safe confines of your university, it is natural to feel afraid of the “real world.” After finishing uni comes a myriad of expectations and responsibilities from family and friends. However, take it easy. Remember that you also have the right to breathe a sigh of relief and relax for a bit. After all, getting a degree is not an easy feat.

Life after graduation

As hard as it is going to be, the first thing you need to do is find a direction. Decide whether you will do post-graduate study (fulltime or alongside a job) or apply for a graduate job. However, keep in mind that your first direction doesn’t necessarily mean your last. Whatever path you choose now, make plans and start putting them into action.

You may have experienced hardships and pains in uni but you have to prepare yourself for real-life rejection. To be quite honest, it is going to be far more brutal while job searching. Don’t take it too personally or let it bring you down. You are not alone in this. In a very competitive jobs market, consider yourself lucky to even get a reply straight away. Also remember that negative feedback is part of the process so instead of feeling hopeless, learn from your experience. Failure is going to be part of any aspect of life and it happens in different magnitudes.

Since you have already earned a degree, expect some financial challenges. You couldn’t always ask monies from your parents, right? If you were able to save a portion of your student loan, you have to make it last while you try to figure out what you are going to do.

Whichever path you choose, we at Essay Writer would like to congratulate you and wish you the best of luck!
