Jobs are difficult to get especially now that few people are required to fill the many positions in the companies and other organizations. With the advent of computerizing the job sector, one person can perform, with the aid of a computer, a lot of tasks previously performed by well over 100 people.

The computerization of the job market has also led to people trying to acquire many skills so that they can become viable for employment thereby diminishing the chances of those who are fresh from colleges. The graduates therefore find it so difficult to achieve what was once a lifetime dream because most colleges do not offer an opportunity for one to develop skills in many careers, and these careers are also very demanding that they can't be done by one student within a limited time of college life.

So now that you are about or that you have come out of college, and you have been looking for a job which seemingly never come to materialize, what options do you have to earn your self a living and at the same time realize your life long dream of becoming a master in your profession?

There seems to be no clear answer to this but as a student who is just about to graduate from college, I would advice that you should consider acquiring some skills in technology so that you can be able to improve your skills in other areas as you earn yourself some income from the odd jobs.

Takeaways
  • It is not a guarantee that you will get an odd job immediately after college
  • A college leaver should never discriminate between odd jobs for a source of income is better than none
  • Odd jobs include any job in which one is not trained during the college training.
