Whatever jobs are there in the market today are different from those that will be there in the future, and the founder of Facebook advised the students to use this to their advantage.

Facebook Inc: Future is Technology

“If you start with the assumption that everything in the future is going to be different than it is now, then it’s not true that anyone else knows any more than you guys do about what’s going to work in the future,” Zuckerberg said. Facebook wants more and more youth especially girls to develop interest and pursue careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math. For this, a campaign is being run by the company and as a part of the campaign Zuckerberg appeared between the students.

Facebook Inc’s headquarters at Menlo Park are running a short drive, and as a part of this are donating 50 laptops to the students. Also, they want the Sequoia High-School students to learn how to create mobile apps for the smartphones on their own, and for this a class has been organized for teaching them the skills. The Chief Information Officer of Facebook, Tim Campos says that he wants the next Mark Zuckerberg to get the same kind of opportunities.
