Michaelmas 2020 – Careers Service programme

The Careers Service is delighted to present its Michaelmas Term programme 2020. We acknowledge this is an unusual term, but are glad we’re able to bring you a diverse range of virtual fairs, events and skills sessions to support your career planning


You can make the most of the Careers Service this academic year by:

  1. Completing your Handshake Profile and Career Interests with as much detail as you can. This will enable our careers advisers to send you tailored updates and event notifications.
  2. Exploring the Career Centre to access our resources and appointments.
  3. Below is a flavour of what we’ve got coming up. Find our full range of fairs, sessions and panels via the Events section.

Don’t miss our careers fairs this autumn – they only take place once each academic year. They are all being run virtually, and you can discover more and register via Handshake.
