How about the Age factor? A fresh graduate at say 34 (yes they abound). Does the mis-conception apply to them!

Are there fresh graduates of the age mentioned above that got gainful employment (not some sales exec or admin assistant job for a pitiful 30-40k a month) with a reputable firm without any connection involved (physical connection I mean)?

that's nice one there. I am a graduate of chemical engineering 2.2 precisely i have been teaching in secondary schools still at the same time applying for a job through social media, but still not coming have not been accepted let alone gone for an interview. i wanted to expand my horizon my getting these certificates HSC, NEBOSH, so whats your advice. am thinking am wasting my talent
