Graduate jobs are dead. The only recourse as a student, or recent graduate, is to return to your part-time job as a pot-washer, or pack your bags and seek refuge on your mum’s couch.
Ok, so the point has been overstated, but there’s no escaping from the fact that this is a difficult time in the job market for both students and graduates. There are still jobs out there, so don’t pack your bags just yet. The recession simply means that the marketplace has become extremely competitive.
So what can you do to stand out? One option, we think, you should consider is to freelance, whether paid or unpaid.
