Description

Wondering when you need to start applying for those jobs, starting a business or applying for a PhD?

Transitioning from a postgraduate degree is not as straightforward as some imagine. This episode sheds light on different avenues you can take after your degree.

In the UK, planning your next steps after postgraduate studies, ideally, should begin at the start of your studies. We cover 4 themes: Graduate schemes, experienced hires, entrepreneurship route and PhD transitions.

We cover each track and how you should approach them, mentors, support system and accountability partners, encouragement, motivation, openness to the right people, LinkedIn visibility, reaching out to people to point you in the direction of opportunities, the role of careers services and more.

Some Urban Nigerian words like "jaiye" , "ginger" and "gbam!" were mentioned. Jaiye means enjoyment. Ginger means drive. Gbam! means you hit the nail on the head.
