Improve your employability
Our careers experts can help you make critical career decisions and will prepare you for life after university. They can help you choose option courses, show you how to prepare your CV, and help you practice your interview techniques. They will also give you access to careers’ opportunities and facilities like our computerised careers guidance system, Prospects Planner.
Activities and events
Over the course of each university year, you will be able to attend, and take part in, a wide range of careers activities and events that will help you make the transition from student life into employment. These include employer presentations and recruitment fairs, as well as networking and personal development events.
Part-time work and volunteering
