I've noticed that this sub-forum hasn't gotten an awful lot of content at this moment in time, so I thought it would be beneficial to a lot of people if I talked about an issue that I, and I'm sure plenty of other people are facing.
Im still in my second year of university, on a three-year programme, and I have a lot to think about in terms of getting a well paid job or starting a career. For context, I'm particularly interested in getting into renewables or the environment in general, hence my choice of Degree being a Bachelors in Environmental Science.
But the problem is, I don't know if that alone will be enough to guarantee me attention in todays current job climate where people are a lot more competitive. I'm concerned that what I am doing now won't be enough for me to be noticed by employers.
So i was wondering, what would you suggest people do if they are worried about their "employability"? I'm aware of options to do with changing to a Masters Degree, doing volunteering, using LinkedIn (although I've never used it) etc. Does anybody on here have any suggestions to improve yourself or to perhaps get more experience in general?
Any and all advice is appreciated
