How do you enter into a new career path as a college graduate?

Is the question -- as a college graduate, how do you determine your career path? If so, of course, a lot of it has to do with your major. But attending the various companies' information sessions available on campus for graduating students will also be very helpful to understand what is available out there in the real world. For me, that's what I did. I wouldn't have exactly considered consulting but I attended an information session of a consulting firm and absolutely fell in love with the message that they had on why it was so great to be a consultant ( "to be a part of changing the world for major companies" was the message that sold me if you are curious. ) So I applied and did that job for over 10 years and absolutely loved it.

In addition, because I didn't have a very clear direction on what I wanted to do, I also thought being a consultant allowed me to see how different clients of different industries function and would help me determine what will my career direction be.

Be modest. The goal should be focused on gaining work experience in the real world for the first time. It's about considering how to get your foot through the door. I advise taking extra courses (at night or on weekends) to boost your qualifications and skills (such as learning another language or studying computer programs) while working an entry-level job. Think about getting adapted to the workplace. I think that many recent graduates aim a bit too high when, in fact, they are really young and it takes time to reach their desirable level in a career. I think the best thing is to stay humble and be willing to learn and improve. Again, taking extra courses if one can afford to is a good thing to invest in.
