The top 10 skills that'll get you a job when you graduate:

Have you got the key skills graduate employers look for? You'll need to give examples of these essential competencies in your job applications and interviews to impress recruiters and get hired.

Graduate employers place a lot of emphasis on finding candidates with the right skills and competencies for their organisations. Depending on the career sector and profession you choose to work in, there could be very specific skills, abilities and knowledge needed to do the job. However, complementing these are general competencies and behaviours that are essential for successful working. These are the key employability skills – the core skills that will make you effective at work, whatever job you do. They are sometimes known as transferable skills because you develop them over time and take them with you as your career develops; think of them as your passport to career success. You'll need to draw on your work experience to give evidence of these skills.

The top ten skills graduate recruiters want

1. Commercial awareness (or business acumen)

This is about knowing how a business or industry works and what makes a company tick. Showing that you have an understanding of what the organisation wants to achieve through its products and services, and how it competes in its marketplace.

Other key skills that graduate recruiters look for

The 2017 annual report from the Institute of Student Employers (ISE), formerly known as the Association of Graduate Recruiters (AGR), identified a new key skill that is in short supply among graduate hires: managing up, which means building a positive relationship with your manager and providing support so that you can work effectively together to meet the goals of the organisation. ISE members who took part in its annual survey, including many big graduate recruiters, reported that only 4% of their graduate hires could offer this skill at the point of hiring. Another skill which is important to recruiters is dealing with conflict, something the ISE survey found that only one in ten graduate hires is already able to do.

On the positive front, graduate employers expect to provide training to their graduate hires to make up any shortfall in soft skills. According to ISE, most employers believe that most key soft skills can be learnt within a year.

Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare disorder that can occur as a consequence of histiocytosis involving the pituitary gland.  It should not be confused with the more common diabetes mellitus.

Gestational Diabetes

Gestational Diabetes

Diabetes that's triggered by pregnancy is called gestational diabetes (pregnancy, to some degree, leads to insulin resistance). It is often diagnosed in middle or late pregnancy. Because high blood sugar levels in a mother are circulated through the placenta to the baby, gestational diabetes must be controlled to protect the baby's growth and development.

According to the National Institutes of Health, the reported rate of gestational diabetes is between 2% to 10% of pregnancies. Gestational diabetes usually resolves itself after pregnancy. Having gestational diabetes does, however, put mothers at risk for developing type 2 diabetes later in life. Up to 10% of women with gestational diabetes develop type 2 diabetes. It can occur anywhere from a few weeks after delivery to months or years later.

With gestational diabetes, risks to the unborn baby are even greater than risks to the mother. Risks to the baby include abnormal weight gain before birth, breathing problems at birth, and higher obesity and diabetes risk later in life. Risks to the mother include needing a cesarean section due to an overly large baby, as well as damage to heart, kidney, nerves, and eye.

 

Treatment during pregnancy includes working closely with your health care team and:

• Careful meal planning to ensure adequate pregnancy nutrients without excess fat and calories.

• Daily exercise.

• Controlling pregnancy weight gain.

• Taking diabetes insulin to control blood sugar levels if needed.
