The general notion about youths is that their career begins once they are through with their NYSC and they are already in the job market. But the truth is that if we wait till we get our first jobs before we start building our career, then we are not proactive and we are allowing the economy dictate our career paths. The truth is a lot of people out there know what they want already. They already have a plan in their head based on the course they studied but that may not necessarily be what they will do after school due to the economic situation and competition in the labor market.
