London Graduate Fair

Seriously. I love going to these events. They're so refreshing. Constantly gaining more contacts, speaking to more people and expressing your ambition to the people that can help!

It was good. Obviously, me being the eager budding journo, I only set eyes on the stands that were media related. And I stumbled across a News Associates stand where I spoke to a lovely lady about the main content of the 20 week course, what it offers, and how great the chances are of receiving a job after completing the course. This conversation reminded me a lot of when I went to the spring graduate fair at senate house in April this year. Both courses are NCTJ qualified. What course is more suitable for myself though? Time to dig a little deeper and do research on this.

It really does put a smile on my face knowing that I'm 95% decisive of what I want to go once I graduate and I'm already working towards that :-)

I also forgot to mention that I've been offered a place at the National Council For the Training of Journalists next year!

Keep 'em coming. God is too great. 

And alsooo, below are a few pics I took at the London graduate fair, which took place in Angel, in the business design centre, on Thursday 20th June. 

I liked this slide in particular. Why should we feel shy when talking about our skills to employers? We worked hard to gain these skills, it could have been a struggle to adapt to these skills, so why not be proud of them and show them off a little!

In order to get any job on this planet, you need to show the right attitude and characteristics to your future employer. Confidence is everything and as a journalist, people skills was a characteristic that only had to become natural to me - it was (and is) a necessity 

Overall, an awesome day!
