University of Ghana Graduate Struggling To Get a Job Moves to Germany, Gets Employed Quickly

• A University of Ghana graduate has warmed hearts online after sharing his relocation story on social media
• This comes as he opened up on the difficulty in getting a job after completing university back in 2023
• Ghanaians who took to the comment section of the video have shared varied opinions on the inspiring story of the young man

Michael Ayim, a University of Ghana graduate, has become an inspiration after opening up about his relocation to Germany.

In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh on TikTok, the young man said it all began after bagging a degree in Material Science and Engineering in 2023.

Having completed his national service at the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority, Michael admitted that finding a job was a daunting task, as many applications he made both online and in person proved futile.

“In Ghana, if you don’t know anyone, it is really difficult to secure permanent employment, and that was my situation. I was not able to secure employment although I was applying online and in person. And so, yeah, that was it. It was more of a struggle because being a firstborn, the pressure mounts on you.”
