It is definitely not easy to find a good employment and land a lucrative career after college. Even with the help of the career centers in schools, the support is not enough due to many factors.

In a very competitive job market, it only gets harder especially for the average student. So what is the missing link? An entrepreneurial mindset. According to Michigan State University, there is no better way for students to get themselves ready and prepared for the world of 21^st century than cultivating their skills in entrepreneurship. It is because it can develop the students' set of skills, behaviors and attitude that are crucial in succeeding academically and professionally.

If you want to have an entrepreneurial mindset and set yourself up for success, here are the things you can do to make the most out of your college, according to Entrepreneur.

Attend as many events as possible, in and out of the campus

If your career center in the campus organizes an event, then you should go because the people you meet there like the speakers will be valuable to you in the future because the connections you can establish here can help you get jobs. If there are also events outside campus that are relevant to your field, go ahead and leverage on them.

Enroll to low cost or free online classes to boost your skills

Take advantage of the technology and register to online courses that will enhance your skills related to your field. These things can also give a boost on your resume so that you can have an edge over other applicants when you finally apply for jobs.

Invest and collect as many experiences as you can while you're in college

College is a time when learning is not limited within the walls of your classroom. Go out and participate in gigs, internships, apprenticeship and anything that will help you get ready for the real world.
