what do i need to do to get a job in kenya

The high uneymployment rate still remains a pain to all kenyan governments come and past.More and more individuals clear campus in the hope of getting a place in the corporate world and thus start of their post-campus life but in most cases that does not materialize.Most who get jobs are either well connected or are just too lucky.so what is the problem?
GOVERNMENT
A fact of life is when humans fail they would rather blame it on another individual in order to protect their reputation.This far all fingers point to the government as the main problem point.While i do concure with most of the kenyan people-the goverment is the sole custodian of the country and thus should ensure proper planning and development-i beg to differ when they fail to swallow the harsh reality and accept that the time for pointing of fingers has come to an end and we thus need to determine our future....but how?
PEOPLE

Have you ever stopped and wondered why you took it upon yourself to do the course you did? what were your reasons? did you think of how it would get you a job pap!?(not a joke)
recently the government voiced its plans on making kenya a financial hub and an ict hub....do you see my point now?? ok let me explain,if this plans of theirs do materialize,the necessary manpower might just not be available since most form four leavers dont pay attention to such facts.always opting for the easier options and the most fancy degrees.
While i might not be the most reliable advisor...next time you decide to venture into a particular field read the news first!!! make an informed decision since it will be an investment to the kenyan future....


P/s if all this fails dont forget investment in other areas still offers an escape route.every individual is blessed and deeply talented.if you look deep inside you their is a start up waiting to happen so think ahead.
