Reid Hoffman outlines 3 secrets of highly successful graduates: 1. Develop a competitive advantage by leveraging your existing assets, aspirations, and market realities. 2. Proactively build and leverage your network, as opportunities are connected to people. Seek to help others within your network. 3. Take intelligent risks, such as internships or side projects, to learn and discover the best career path, rather than avoiding risk which is risky itself in a changing world. Playing it too safe minimizes learning.
