拉仇恨 英国名校学生已成公司创始人且入围选美决赛

LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOU’RE SUSCEPTIBLE TO EXTREME JEALOUSY… / 拉仇恨：前方高能预警

21 year old Consumer Behaviour and Marketing student Rachel Pitman is only in her second year at ReadingUniversity, but she has already co-founded a business, The Social Media Café, written a book on how to social media as a marketing tool – and she’s a finalist in the Miss England beauty contest. Pitman is one of a growing number of students who are proactively kick-starting their careers whilst still in education, in an attempt to avoid graduate unemployment; as she points out, “Getting good grades isn’t enough to get us noticed by employers any more.”

Rachel Pitman今年21岁，雷丁大学消费者行为与市场营销专业，虽然才刚刚读大二，但已经是The Social MediaCafé公司的共同创始人了，还以如何使用社交媒体进行市场营销为话题写了一本书——她还入围了英格兰小姐选美比赛的决赛。

为了避免“毕业就是失业”的情况，现在仍在受教育阶段就开始积极创业的学生越来越多，Pitman就是其中之一，她说：“现在光有好成绩已经不足以让我们受到雇主的注意了。”

KDS ANALYSIS / 有话说

Too sickeningly perfect – don’t worry, you’re not going to fail in life just because you don’t run a boutique business alongside your degree!

Frankie McCoy：这已经完美到无法让人正常接受了——不过别担心，没有在大学学位之外再开一家精品公司，并不等于人生失败。

王越：这样完美的人，不让人妒忌可能嘛！
