My best advice to students is to understand that anything you do, whether it be in university, through volunteer work, clubs, organisations, a part-time job, or a hobby, is giving you valuable skills and experience. Make sure to recognize these skills and strengths and use them to your advantage. This is a great starting point for a successful future.

People today often switch careers multiple times over the course of their lifetime. Whether they are in the first five years of their career after college or in the twilight of their careers after 40 years, many people are successfully making these career transitions and thriving in their new roles.
