It is not easy to choose a career today. Hundreds of students are leaving schools and universities
every year to seek employment in the various professions, though employment opportunities are

The inability of the various professions to absorb all those seeking employment makes the choice of a
career more difficult. Before one leaves school or university, one has many plans, confident that choosing a

career will not be difficult. But when, the time comes to choose a career, one finds that there are others
with better qualifications waiting to enter the same profession. Disillusioned, one then looks for any kind
of employment. In this way, many who wanted to become police inspectors or field assistants in the
rubber estates in this country, become teachers instead, and many who wanted to become teachers,
have become shop assistants.
The lack of institutions where people could acquire the skills necessary for a particular career makes
the choice of a career even more difficult. For example, if one desires to become a journalist, one has to
receive some training and instruction in a school of journalism. But if there is no such school, one is
compelled to think of some other career.
