LUKE’S TIPS FOR SCHOOL LEAVERS

#1 STAY BUSY

It’s a challenging and exciting time. Whether your post school plans go well or are unexpected, so many opportunities lie ahead of you.

Future employers will favour school leavers who finish school and go straight to;

  • Full-time work
  • Study Full-time
  • Help a charity
  • Travel

Take a break to celebrate your incredible achievement of completing high school, however avoid unexplained gaps of 3-6 months once finishing school.

#3 NETWORK
Surround yourself with the right people who will inspire and challenge you;

  • Find a mentor in the industry
