With the pandemic disrupting the conventional job market, several opportunities are emerging for individuals willing to gain unconventional work experience. For example, administrative jobs in hospitals now come under computer-based work that can be done remotely. Also, jobs in retail, food and beverages, consumer durables and more have been transformed, with the emergence of e-commerce and on-demand service industries. The future will be a mix of every kind of job, and the perception of emerging graduates towards this trend will be crucial to a successful economy. While studying, seek out opportunities for temporary work, do some gigs and freelancing work, and intern wherever possible.
