The Employability Service provides application and interview support throughout the entire process, including help writing CVs and cover letters.
During the application process we also assist students in identifying their ideal career path and help them find suitable placement avenues to follow. Once students have a clear focus on the type of activities that would benefit their career choice it is easier to identify whether an opening matches their interests or not. This ensures students select positions that will help them pursue their long-term career goals.
After a successful application students receive full support from our team throughout their placement. Each student is assigned an academic supervisor whose role it is to help students manage any problems they may face during the placement and guide them towards starting their final year project while on placement.
