The Academic City Boarding School Launches Comprehensive Career Guidance Sessions

In today’s job market, many individuals find themselves unemployed or in jobs they are not passionate about. Recent statistics show that approximately 30% of college graduates end up in positions that do not require their degree, and nearly 20% of young professionals change careers within their first five years. This misalignment highlights the urgent need for comprehensive career guidance and support for students from an early age.
