One reply to “Stuff I wish I knew when I was a fresh grad”
Wah, such a solid post! I really appreciate how you laid out the realities of adulting after graduation. Your points about managing finances and the importance of networking hit home, especially in this day and age where everyone’s hustling. It’s mad important to get our money game on point instead of just living paycheck to paycheck, you know?
Also, your reminder about building relationships in the industry is super relevant. It’s not just about what you know but who you know, for real. So my question is, what’s the best way to strike up genuine connections without feeling like you’re just trying to sell yourself, ah?
I ask this because many young grads find it awkward to approach seniors or potential mentors, and I think understanding the human side of networking can really change the game for us. Curious to hear everyone’s thoughts!
