For most young graduates, landing a dream job immediately after
graduation has become a mirage and an impossible task to accomplish.
In
reality, especially in this part of the world, the guarantee of getting
a job is normally not easy talk more about getting a dream job.
Fortunately,
the good news is that while you are waiting to land that dream job,
might want to explore some of the opportunities around you.
5 Things You Should Consider Doing While Waiting For That Dream Job
#1. Learn a computer skill
Nowadays employers of labor now prefer to hire job applicants that have computer skills and knowledge.
You can take advantage of one of the many computer learning schools across the country and equip yourself for that dream job.
You may also consider asking someone who is already good on a computer to teach you at little or no cost.
#2. Invest in agriculture
You can take advantage of the government’s agricultural intervention funding to start and grow your agricultural ideas.
One
good thing about this is that most times it is not financial demanding
especially when you want to deal with small-scale farming.
You can also get training materials online at little or no cost.
#3. Start an online business
You
don’t have to be computer savvy to own an online business. You can take
advantage of the numerous online businesses and choose a niche for
yourself.
You can choose to go into blogging, advertising, promotion, affiliate marketing and lots more.
Recently, things like advertising can be done online like on Instagram, Facebook, and others.
You can start something small and grow it into a very big business.
#4. Sell your and knowledge and skills
Study your environment and take advantage of the needs of the community residents.
You
can start a fashion/tailoring business, cobbler/shoemaker shop, food
canteen or better still look for a solution to a major problem in your
locality and offer your services at a given price.
You can also
explore the possibility of teaching. You can pass knowledge to others
who are in need of it and charge them for your services.
#5. Start a professional course
As
a way of preparing yourself for that dream job and also setting
yourself ahead of other applicants who are interested in the same job,
you should consider doing a professional course related to the job if
possible.
The truth is employers prefer someone who they will
spend less on when he/she is employed because they believe that you have
all the knowledge that it takes to get the work going.
This is one of the reasons why it is easy for someone who is already working to get another job offer in another company.
To
summarize the whole talk, I advise that while you are waiting for that
dream job, you should get something doing no matter how small provided
it is legal.
