A Better Choice


“When you make a choice, you change the future.” 


I would like to share the most important things we must consider before choosing a programme/course any in University or College. As we all know, getting ourselves a job is tough nowadays. This is due to the fact that many employers are seeking for more experienced candidates. But not to worry, some of the employers prefer fresh graduates because they want to enhance the learning process rather than giving “hands-on” tasks.  

Malaysians today believe that students who graduated from public institutions have a better future ahead. This is not true. Graduates need to understand that finding a job is not easy and quite challenging at times. Therefore, it is very important to choose a programme that you intend to study wisely including the market aspects. 

         Potential employers also seek graduates who possessed the top five qualities and skills such as:
  • Communication skills (verbal and written)
  • Strong work ethic
  • Teamwork skills (work well with others)
  • Initiative, and
  • Analytical skills

         As a conclusion, I concur that choosing courses wisely and having the fundamental drive to portray a positive image can determine our road to success.
