Career: “What do I want to do with my life?” This is one of the most important – and daunting – questions we ask ourselves.
Finding a career path that corresponds with our interests and values is an important part of determining our life’s purpose. Sitting on your hands is not an option – you want to be constantly thinking, learning, and growing. And there’s no time like the present to start thinking about maximising your career growth.

You’re not alone – today’s job market is tougher than ever as more students graduate from university. According to the World Economic Forum’s “Future of Jobs” Report 2020, the new economy will generate about 97 million new jobs.

Due to this shift, the WEF projects that by 2025, 50% of workers would need reskilling.
And the bitter truth is, no one will hire you unless you have the right skills. So, if you want to secure your ideal career over the next few years, now is the time to pick up in-demand skills.
