introducing: Now that you are a graduate


Introducing!

Now that you are a Graduate.

All you need to know about Graduate Opportunities.

Are you are Graduate? Have you ever asked any of these questions, what do graduates do? What can I do with my degree? How do I find graduate jobs? What can I do after my degree? Then this book is for you and every graduate who care to maximize their life using their education as a tool.

In this 240 paged book I share my convictions about ways fresh graduates can launch into a life of significance using the varieties of opportunities offered by graduate education.

The book, forwarded by Professor Odutola Osilesi, the vice chancellor of Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye meticulously reviewed the various opportunities and possibilities following the acquisition of a university degree. In the book, I highlighted and explored the many routes available for self actualisation and fulfillment of a typical graduate in Nigeria and anywhere in the world.

The book answers the question “What do graduates do?” It presents a unique way to learn basic skills that are needed to maximise the university education while it offers a wide range of fresh information on job hunting, resume writing, interview essentials and further graduate skills development. It specifies various ways of starting a small scale business after the acquisition of a university degree.

In a special module, I discussed the 15 Success habits every young graduate must covet if they must go far in their career and live a worthwhile life. These habits are reviewed in the context of their application to the workplace either as employee or employer.

This book is a great resource that should be read by every graduate who want to acquire information that will aid their career even after graduation.

Getting a copy for yourself or for a friend is a gesture that will not only help in attaining your desired goal in life but also express your commitment to your career success while you will be significantly empowering my own dreams of youth empowerment and entrepreneurship development.

Copies of the book are available in leading bookstores and post offices nation wide.

I am available for further discussion on the distribution of the book across the country. You can reach me on my mobile number 08034316011.
