Key content

Once in the workplace, very few graduates sit down and take exams. They are building relationships with clients and colleagues. They are dealing with tight deadlines, responding to problems, resolving conflict, and looking for innovative responses to difficult situations. Ultimately it is these skills, the ability to manage other people, and the development of the new business which will allow differentiation as careers progress. It is common to connect with future employers on LinkedIn, so you need to develop a profile and constantly look to enhance it. The goal is to look increasingly like an aspiring professional rather than a student.
