GTI Student encourages Non-Conventional Careers

Emmanuel Wilson, a 22-year-old Government Technical Institute (GTI) student, is encouraging people to pursue non-conventional careers.

He is studying Mechanical Electrical Engineering at GTI. Wilson explained that many people view jobs in non-conventional fields as inferior. However, with Guyana’s growing economy, he pointed out that companies now seek to hire more people in these fields, and individuals can even become entrepreneurs.
