Not so long ago almost any student who successfully completed a university degree could find a good

career quite easily. Companies. toured the academic institutions, competing with each other to select

graduates. However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong

competition in the search for jobs.

Most careers organizations highlight three stages for graduates to follow in the process of securing a

suitable career: recognizing abilities, matching these to available jobs and presenting them well to possible

employers.

Job seekers have to make a careful assessment of their own. abilities. One area of assessment should

be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates

should also consider their own personal values and attitudes. An honest assessment of personal interest

and abilities such as creative skills, or skills acquired from work experience, should also be given careful

thought.

The second stage is to study the "opportunities available for employment and to think about how the

general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. To do this, graduates can study job and

position information in newspapers, or they can visit a careers office, write to possible employers for

information or contact friends or relatives who may already be involved in a particular profession. After

studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between

various careers.

Good personal presentation is essential in the search for a good career. Job application forms and letters

should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors. Where additional

information is asked for, job seekers should describe their abilities and work experience in more depth, with

examples if possible. They should try to balance their own abilities with the employer's needs, explain why

they are interested in a career with the particular company and try to show that they already know

something about the company and its activities.

When graduates go to an interview, they should prepare properly by finding out all they can about the

possible employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also important. Interviewees

should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they

are unsure about. This is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable

answer.
