Hundreds copies of GRADUAN, POSTgraduan and Careers in the Capital Market were handed out to the keen graduates which saw them impatiently flipping through the guidebook and holding on to them as if it was their only life-line. :)

There were also opportunities for the students to talk to potential employers regarding the current job market and at the same time surveying available job prospects.
