Work Experience
Work experience provides a glimpse into the real world of work, helping you understand what careers interest you and which ones might not be a good fit. It's like trying on different hats before committing to one. Secondly, it also builds essential skills like communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and time management. These skills are transferable and will benefit you in any future job.
Moreover, having work experience on your CVcan make you more attractive to colleges and future employers. It demonstrates your initiative and responsibility. Additionally, work experience often leads to valuable connections and references. Networking with professionals can open doors to future opportunities.
