Last week I went along to the Creative Networks evening where there was a lecture held in the lecture theatre. It was really helpful as there were four speakers who talked about life after university, their experiences and how to go about getting yourself out there and the best route to go.
They talked about Graduate websites such as Graduates Yorkshire, and Grads East. They also said that networking was an important thing and also recruitment agencies
The other thing was they told us to focus on our CV and cover letter paying attention to detail, tailor the letter with our own branding, spelling and grammer and also tailor your CV.
They also told us key points in what companies will be looking for, for undertaking employment which is
- Career focused
- Customer awareness
- Problem solving
- Communication
- Positive attitude
- Team working
- Self managment
- IT
- Enterprising individual
- Numeracy
- Planning and Organisation
After the lecture I went on to networking outside where I collected quite a few contacts.
