All About Jobs

Work & Wage (this Thursday the 6th of August, Central Library, 4 to 5pm), is all about jobs.

What makes you and your CV stand out in the crowd; what are employers looking for? How do you write a good CV when you actually don’t have much to put on it? What should you write in your covering letter?

Find out all this and more, including making your experiences count, getting references and considering voluntary work, career progression within a company and Performance Appraisals from a managements point of view. Career Services will also be there to let you know how they can help.
