Getting A Job

Whether you are looking for jobs in the UK or internationally you will need to create tailored applications that are focused on the employer. Find tips on how to do this here.

The careers service helped me to find a job and apply here in the UK as the application process is different from my home country. They diagnosed any issues with my CV and cover letter and I think this is why I have been successful in getting interviews.
