Youths aged 25 years and below as well as 'A' and 'O' Levels students who had just finished their examinations are encouraged to look for part time or temporary jobs in order to use their free time constructively. By involving themselves in part-time jobs, they could gain work experience to prepare them for their career in the future.
Excerpt from BB
Interested to get a job?
Go to: Pusat Sumber Kerjaya (Careers Resource Centre)
Where: Yayasan Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Complex
The centre can assist in exploring a whole range of careers (part-time or temporary jobs)available in the public and private sectors.
How part-time job benefits students: (Dr Eh Ah Meng)
1. Having part-time jobs will help to motivate and discipline oneself before stepping into the real working environment
2. At the same time also help to improve communication skills as they will interact with different levels of people from various fields.
3. Work experience is very important for them to be more marketable when looking for permanent jobs.
4. The most popular question asked by employers during the interview would be "Do you have any working experience?"
5. Students would not be able to learn such experience from their textbooks at school.

Or push yourself to do something you have been to do which is outside your normal routine. Join the Brunei Marathon and start training now. Who says there's nothing to do now exams are over.
Maybe running is not your thang' - go help out those who are less fortunate than ourselves. Bet Pusat Bahagia and Pusat Ehsan or any others that you know, might need volunteers. Money is not the only thing that they need - anyone can give money but a friend (or volunteer) is better option.
So go do something useful for yourself and other rather than lounging around the house playing games, hanging out or purely wasting time.
Anyone with any ideas for things to do after exams are over are welcome to email us for the list of useful and beneficial things to do. Hey every little things help if we can help others. Right c tau gaban :P
