Summer Careers Academy – Careers advice, practice interviews and CV clinic
As you will have spotted from emails, next week (12th – 15th June) the Student Experience Team have put on a series of careers events to get you fired up for the summer. Over the course of the week, you will have the opportunity to network with Irwin Mitchell, chat to Accutrainee and boost your commercial awareness. Activities are suitable for all students, but some are tailored for different cohorts so have a read below and then make your choice.
Be aware though, the places for many of the events are filling up quickly so this is your last chance to get involved. Details of the week’s schedule follows with the all-important access information. We hope to see many of you on campus and or online.
