Answer 1
Three pieces of career advice I would give a recent graduate who prioritizes work-life balance:
1. Emphasize the importance of delivering value over logging long hours. Encourage them
to focus on showcasing their skills and achievements rather than simply putting in
extensive time.
2. Help them hone efficiency skills such as task prioritization, time management, and clear
communication to complete work more effectively, allowing for more personal time.
3. Encourage negotiation of flexible work arrangements like remote work or compressed
workweeks to accommodate their lifestyle preferences.
4. Negotiate flex work arrangements. Discuss the possibility of proposing flexible work
schedules, remote work options, or compressed workweeks to their employer. This way,
they can maintain productivity while accommodating their outside interests.
Additionally, advise graduates to establish clear boundaries between work and personal life,
sticking to designated work hours and scheduling time for hobbies and interests.
