What advice do you have for Â鶹´«Ã½s looking for their career after college? 

Talk to your counselors, professors, friends, etc. Make sure you network with others so you'll have a job in mind or lined up. Give yourself time to truly think about what you want to do (career-wise) and what type of person you want to be (becoming); basically give yourself time to think, breathe and grow.
