On the session Dalia talked about her personal journey as an English department graduate and her professional journey after the memorable college years. When talking to her juniors, Dalia was being straightforward and presented them with the hard facts of the current economy and how as third year students they should start ‘hunting’ for job vacancies. Dalia also shared some important information on the skills that Fresh graduates would need to win the competitions.
