The event was also attended by&nbsp;secondary school students in the Advanced Level from selected schools in Kabale Municipality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/westernpearlreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1002461190-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10969\" srcset=\"https:\/\/westernpearlreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1002461190-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/westernpearlreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1002461190-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/westernpearlreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1002461190-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/westernpearlreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1002461190.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Highlighting the importance of preparation for a&nbsp;competitive&nbsp;job market, Mr. Mukamasiimwe urged students in higher institutions to actively seek volunteer opportunities that will help them build relevant skills and experience,&nbsp;even before completing their studies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe job market today is highly competitive, but those with skills and experience hold a distinct advantage over others. Therefore, before and after graduation, don\u2019t wait for jobs. If immediate employment isn\u2019t available, take advantage of opportunities to offer voluntary services,\u201d he advised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CUE IN.. AMON ON VOLUNTEERING<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/westernpearlreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/AMON-ON-SKILLS-AND-EXPERIENCE-2-2.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He further encouraged students&nbsp; to leverage social media to showcase their skills and technical abilities instead of using the&nbsp;online platforms&nbsp;solely for gossip and entertainment. Mr. Mukamasiimwe emphasized that students&nbsp; should present themselves as critical thinkers and problem-solvers to potential employers, rather than as burdens on the workforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe world is looking for critical thinkers,&nbsp;employees who not only identify problems but also propose solutions,\u201d he stated. He added that demonstrating this mindset during job applications and interviews is vital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CUE IN&#8230;AMON ON CRITICAL THINKING&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/westernpearlreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/AMON-ON-CRITICAL-THINKING2.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additional career guidance tips shared with students included selecting A \u2018level subject combinations aligned with desired university courses, developing digital skills, maintaining honesty and integrity, and cultivating leadership qualities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking at the event, Hearing Heart Director, Mr.&nbsp;Arnold Arinaitwe explained that the seminar was motivated by the need to equip students with knowledge and wisdom to navigate the ongoing&nbsp;global&nbsp;unemployment crisis, which has left many youths frustrated despite investing considerable time and family resources into their education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He referenced the biblical story of Solomon\u2019s encounter with God in 1 Kings 3:9, where the third King of Israel requested wisdom. Presented with the chance to ask for anything, Solomon asked God for a discerning heart to distinguish right from wrong while ruling Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Representing\u00a0Dean of\u00a0UNITE Kabale Campus,\u00a0the\u00a0Chief Librarian Mr. Patrick Katusabe expressed gratitude to the organizers for choosing the institution as the venue for the seminar. He noted that the event was timely, as UNITE\u00a0was\u00a0preparing to graduate its first cohort of Bachelor\u2019s degree students in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of early 2026, the global youth unemployment rate (aged 15\u201324) is approximately 12.4%, according to the International Labour Organization&#8217;s (ILO) Employment and Social Trends 2026 report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a slight increase from previous projections, with about 260 million young people worldwide not employed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Uganda, the youth unemployment rate&nbsp;is&nbsp;at 12.3 percent according to the 2024 National Census.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further reports indicate that Uganda churns out over 700,000 new people into the labor market annually, but only about 90,000 secure formal employment, leaving over 600,000 unemployed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
