In this episode of the Be Unbound podcast, we discuss why recent graduates struggle to find jobs despite having degrees, and the surprising 'superpowers' that come from performing basic job responsibilities well. We've seen firsthand that a mindset shift can transform your work life, and that rings true for so many of the students we work with every day. Because when you show up on time, show respect, and have a willingness to learn, you can set yourself apart in today's job market. We also explore how work, at its core, is an act of worship and an essential part of God's plan for our lives. Plus, we touch on the importance of community and how Unbound can help you develop marketable skills for life.
