Hit the ground running this Academic Year!

by Anabela Pocas

Plan ahead for the new academic year and save the dates for our careers events.

We know many of you are still making the most of the summer break – you might be working, interning or even taking a well-deserved holiday but here at the Careers Service, we’re preparing for our busiest autumn term yet. Here’s what you have to look forward to:

Careers fairs

Employer/Careers Service events

Employers are always hosting insight schemes, information sessions and office visits to let students know more about their application process and what it’s like to work for them.

The Careers Service also organises talks, workshops and sessions to help you develop those crucial job-seeking skills and figure out your next steps.

To view all upcoming events, log into JobsLive and browse the Calendar.

Other services available

  • MyCVs – upload your CV to JobsLive to get feedback from one of our Careers Consultants
  • 25-minute careers discussion – book an online or in-person appointment with one of our Careers Consultants from 7 am the working day before via JobsLive to discuss any aspect of your career, including your CV and cover letter
  • 40-minute careers consultation (by referral only) – book an online appointment with a careers consultant who works closely with your department and is trained to help with every aspect of career planning from 7 am up to three weeks in advance via JobsLive
