Hello, Kate, and Welcome to Steemit.
Congratulations on your graduation! Hope you find a great position doing something that you like to do.
Meanwhile, you can do some "work" by creating high-quality Steemit posts and curating others' posts.
(How are things in Ukraine? I believe the political situation is still somewhat unstable, but I hope that your daily life is comfortable, stable and safe.)
Below are a few basic points of advice re posting on Steemit.
- Longer posts are more lucrative than short posts. If you make a post of 20–30 paragraphs, it's more likely to earn rewards.
- Include some photos, images or graphs, to complement the text.
- Make sure the text and photos are formatted properly, so that your post looks attractive and appealing.
- Be yourself.
- Be interesting and informative.
- Create quality content. Steemit is intended to be a platform of quality content. (You will see many insignificant posts with meager content and no quality. Most of those of posts [called “shitposts” by Steemit whale Stellabelle] will earn few rewards and soon pass into oblivion.)
- Get online and start curating. Read various posts, comment on those posts you find interesting, and upvote those posts. That’s the best way to attract followers.
Hope this helps for now. Good luck, and Full Steem Ahead!
I can’t thank you enough!
Don't worry, everything is fine in Lviv, but in the East there is a war. Thanks for asking and for the advice.
You're welcome. We can all benefit from high-quality posts, and I try to encourage and assist newbies to do so.
Glad all is well where you live. Let's hope it remains fine, and hope the warmongers are all restrained from waging war.
One more point. Submitting photos in the various photo contests is a great way to earn a bit of Steem and to attract followers. Here are links to 2 contests.

#tepchallenge, organized by @theexplorer
Yes, that's exactly what I'll do.
Thank you!
