"The forum aims at guiding young female graduates by arming them with necessary tools and skills to obtain better job opportunities and pave the way for them to better communicate with establishments, companies and ministries of concern."
Al-Asheikh commended businesswomen in the private sector for responding and offering more support to the new generation of graduates.
