Practical advice for getting you ready for the world of work

Choose your career carefully; during and after your studies, develop and strengthen the skills required in your career path and/or industry.

Build up and develop a network of contacts during and after your studies.

Learn how to write a convincing CV and cover letter.

Read  ‘’Le Guide du travailleur au Cameroun’’ and the ‘’Labour Code’’. Learn about the services of the National Security and Insurance Fund (NSIF).

Be persistent and flexible during the job search.

What if you were cut out for the voluntary sector? Don't hesitate to explore this path and get involved in an association that works for a cause you care about (even during your studies).

Do not hesitate to consider a professional retraining if you feel like it or to launch yourself into entrepreneurship if you have an original idea that meets a need or identify a business opportunity.

Register on the websites of recruitment agencies and on professional social networks.
