Employability


Apart from giving individual advice, Career Services / Welfare Officers run regular workshops on topics like postgraduate study, how to put together a CV and covering letter, and improving your application and interview techniques.
We either arrange trips to exhibitions, seminars, visits to companies (please see Fees List for charges) or invite companies or business to visit our college and give presentations. We also place adverts or notices on a broad range of jobs, employers, and opportunities for further study, both in the UK and overseas. Please speak to a Career Services / Welfare Officers for Advice, Guidance, and Information at a drop-in session. These are one-to-one discussions, up to 15 minutes long.

FURTHER INFORMATION

Career Services / Welfare Officers recommends that you also register with Prospects.ac.uk, providers of the official national graduate careers web site with a range of services for students and graduates, with whom we work in close partnership.

PROSPECTS PLANNER

Prospects planner is an online career exploration tool for Higher Education students and graduates. You will be asked a series of questions about your skills, interests, and motivations. Prospects planner can help you to:

  • Identify what you want out of a job; generate new job ideas and check out your existing ones.
  • Find out what motivates you in a job; identify your skills and what you can offer to the job/employer.
  • See how these match the jobs you are considering.
  • Research your chosen jobs in more detail, compare your options, and decide on the right choices for you.
