МОКГАДИ

What happens when young people stop waiting for opportunities and start creating them? As part of the Trailblazers Roadshow, we sit down with Evelyn Mokgadi Kwatapa, co-founder of BeTheJob Graduate Movement, a youth-led initiative working to bridge the gap between students, graduates and the world of work. Inspired by youth unemployment, limited access to information and the challenges young people face when transitioning from education into employment, BeTheJob focuses on career exposure, networking, entrepreneurship, mentorship, skills development and access to opportunities. In this Roadshow conversation, Evelyn shares the story behind BeTheJob, the challenges of building a movement with limited resources, and why she believes young people can create opportunities rather than simply wait for them. The philosophy is simple: “If you can’t find the job, be the job.” Guest: Evelyn Mokgadi Kwatapa Organisation: BeTheJob Graduate Movement Series: Trailblazers Roadshow Learn more about BeTheJob Graduate Movement: BeTheJob Graduate Movement on Facebook What opportunity would you create if you stopped waiting for one? #TrailblazersPodcast #TrailblazersRoadshow #BeTheJob
