Fresh Grad Seeking Career Advice!
Hey everyone, I'm a recent graduate and I'm looking for some advice.
I'm ready to start my career journey, but I'm a little unsure about the best way to progress and grow.
Any tips on navigating the early stages of a career? What are some key things I should focus on to set myself up for success in the long run?
I'd love to hear about your experiences and any advice you have for a fresh grad. Thanks in advance!

Hey Amir, I'm not in your area of expertise, but I do have one piece of advice. I remember someone telling me the day before I started my first 'big job' to "say yes to everything". It has stayed with me for the last 15 years, I think about it so often. Whilst you of course need to apply logic over this, I truly think being a yes person has gotten me far! It's painted me as a team player, enthusiastic, and a go getter. Good luck :)
