My Beloved Undergraduates and Postgraduates, wherever you may be.
If you think that by just attending lectures and completing your assignments to
get good grades, you will be
well equipped and prepared to compete in the job market, you are making ONE of the BIGGEST MISTAKES in your life. Believe me, as I have been an
academic for the l
ast 23 years teaching both undergraduate and postgraduate students from many countries including those from China, Jordan, Yemen, Libya, Indonesia, Europe, Middle East, and I have conducted
research on job competencies sought after my employers.
Do you realise that paper qualification, in this case, a university degree is just
one aspect of securing yourself a job??? Not even a good job!! What employers are looking for in their potential employees nowadays are
good communication skills which include
public speaking skills, interpersonal skills, leadership skills, critical thinking ability, analytical skills, confidence, flexibility, adaptability and a passion for life-long learning. So, you need to seriously think about how you can
attain these skills while you are still pursuing your degree. Do NOT TAKE this lightly!!
Some universities (e.g.
University Utara Malaysia) have started
entrepreneurial programs with Multilevel marketing companies like DXN Sdn Bhd. on campus (Sintok, Kedah, Malaysia).

The collaboration (joint-venture) is to enable students to
participate in real-life business activities during their studies and e
nhance their soft skills. In other words, involvement in these activities will enable you to
put into practice what you are learning or have learnt in your formal lectures. In addition, you will learn how to
lead your team to success, conduct trainings, the art of communication, network with global leaders, learn their mindset and get invaluable tips and guidance on how to do business. Other than that, you'll have the opportunity to
earn extra income, travel to countries where the business is conducted, participate in their activities, and do sight-seeing.
The benefits are immeasurable.... However,YOU CAN EXPERIENCE THESE BENEFITS AND even MORE if you take action NOW.
Don't wait until you have graduated to prepare yourself for the job market!!! iT WILL BE TOO LATE... WAKE UP, Please....
THOSE in the 6th or 7th semester, please DO NOT WAIT any longer...
Time is running out for you .... You need to GET these skills....and BE the SOUGHT AFTER candidate in the job market!! or be prepared TO TAKE ON SELF-EMPLOYMENT.
