Too Many Diplomas And Degrees Hurting Your Job Search
We Kenyans are overly fascinated with education. And by education, i mean having a string of diplomas and degree in this and that. And it is with a good reason. We have case studies of from rags to riches simply because someone got a degree here and a diploma there and look how far they have come.
Take a case of Mutula kilonzo, Alfred Mutua, Martha Karua, Wangari Mathai and the list goes on. Were not it for them getting a higher education i doubt they’d be where they are now.
That was then. The reality now is very very different. whereas in the eighties you could count the number of law graduates, Bcom and the likes the situation now borders on saturation. Almost all courses, save, for medicine can be said to be saturated. All of us want to ‘take’ the marketable courses paying little attention to talent or even interest and you wonder why the unemployment rate is so high in Kenya.
And here is the surprise for a Monday morning. Do you know that too much education, knowledge and experience in your CV could be the reason you cannot get a job?
