When I finished University last June, I was told I’d be fine. I already had a job interview scheduled and secured for the following week and I’d worked my arse off for (the majority of) my degree. I’d taken part in plenty of extra-curricular activities and co-edited the University magazine alongside writing my dissertation. I’d pretty much always been employed since the age of 16 and had heaps of experience working with people.
YOU’LL BE FINE, they said.
If you’ve just completed your degree – congratulations! Not everybody that started managed to finish, so count yourself as part of the special club that did.

University is finally coming to a climactic end for students up and down the country. But a fundamental reliance upon student loans during the past three or four years may also leave many recent graduates feeling lost and financially helpless.
