Are you a recent graduate feeling negative about job prospects? Robbed not only of your last few months at university (and a proper graduation) but equally of a time where you should be living your #bestlife?

This September 2020 is the first time in nearly 20 years that I won't be going back into education, but while previous graduates have gone out into the 'real world' filled with a sense of liberation and excitement, many 2020 graduates are now feeling apprehensive about entering the job market in a time of global economic instability.

Join me for an engaging episode where I share my own journey post-graduation, and chat to three other recent grads on their personal experiences of graduate life. In the episode, we will share in raw conversation about things like managing expectations, success and productivity, and I will also address how graduates from particular disciplines and industries, such as the music industry or the creative arts, have been acutely affected by the pandemic. We will also touch on themes like accessibility, whether the virtual world of networking and remote recruitment has made the playing field more equal for disabled grads.

I hope this episode will create a sense of solidarity and community among graduates. Let's trust and hope for a future of opportunity and possibility, while extending grace and understanding to both ourselves and others as we all navigate the unique challenges of this extraordinary time.
