LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOU’RE SUSCEPTIBLE TO EXTREME JEALOUSY… / 拉仇恨:前方高能預警
21 year old Consumer Behaviour and Marketing student Rachel Pitman is only in her second year at ReadingUniversity, but she has already co-founded a business, The Social Media Café, written a book on how to social media as a marketing tool – and she’s a finalist in the Miss England beauty contest. Pitman is one of a growing number of students who are proactively kick-starting their careers whilst still in education, in an attempt to avoid graduate unemployment; as she points out, “Getting good grades isn’t enough to get us noticed by employers any more.”
Rachel Pitman今年21歲,雷丁大學消費者行為與市場營銷專業(yè),雖然才剛剛讀大二,但已經是The Social MediaCafé公司的共同創(chuàng)始人了,還以如何使用社交媒體進行市場營銷為話題寫了一本書——她還入圍了英格蘭小姐選美比賽的決賽。
為了避免“畢業(yè)就是失業(yè)”的情況,現在仍在受教育階段就開始積極創(chuàng)業(yè)的學生越來越多,Pitman就是其中之一,她說:“現在光有好成績已經不足以讓我們受到雇主的注意了。”
KDS ANALYSIS / 有話說
Too sickeningly perfect – don’t worry, you’re not going to fail in life just because you don’t run a boutique business alongside your degree!
Frankie McCoy:這已經完美到無法讓人正常接受了——不過別擔心,沒有在大學學位之外再開一家精品公司,并不等于人生失敗。
王越:這樣完美的人,不讓人妒忌可能嘛!
