re you still unsure of your future, especially in today’s situation? COVID-19 reached Singapore’s shores in 2020 and quickly showed that the job market was not ready for it when unemployment rates hit an all-time high of 2.9 per cent in Q2 2020. The ratio of job vacancies to unemployed people fell to 0.57 in June 2020, which suggested that less than six vacancies were available to every 10 unemployed people. In today’s competitive job market, developing your competitive edge is essential and no longer an option. As Singapore’s economy is predicted to further contract, workplace and employers’ priorities will change. Skills that companies will look for in potential employees will be different from pre-pandemic times. In such an abysmal job market, it is crucial that future graduates stay relevant in fields which they wish to pursue, as this will increase their employability when the storm passes.
