Organized by Princeton College, a prestigious school reputed for nurturing students to meet the 21st century academic and non-academic needs on Friday, the 31st of March 2023, the career day was titled “Maximizing Opportunities and Succeeding in a World of Challenges”. The principal, Steve Obiakor in his opening speech, urged the students to pay more attention to self-development which is currently very critical irrespective of a chosen course of study adding that self-development is achieved by acquiring 21st century career skills which serves as a credible catalyst for maximizing opportunities and meeting challenges. The principal asked the students to pay attention to such skills as: communication, critical thinking, networking, digital literacy and cultural appreciation through reading, participating in online/offline training programs and making good use of their study times.

come thus far.
Bodex
specifically reflected on her experiences in the media industry as a blogger
and a PR consultant. She specifically relayed and recounted her experiences and
the hurdles she needed to cross when it was imperative that her PR business
needed a breakthrough which eventually happened when she had the opportunity to
work for the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria a few years ago. She
charged the students and gave them the needed tips for recognizing
opportunities when it comes calling, adding that opportunities most times, come
with responsibilities and therefore must be met with preparedness.
