Getting a job when you leave university

Coming out of a university with a degree you may feel that it is going to be fairly easy to land a good job, however this is not the case for a lot of graduates who come across problems when trying to land their dream job.

One of the issues is that for all the time that you have been studying whether it be 3 years or 6 years most haven’t had much actually work experience along the way. Many employers not only look for qualifications but also for experience and if you are up for interview against someone with previous experience of the role they are likely to be one step ahead.

But having no actually work experience needn’t hold you back, it’s just a case of showing how your life experiences and things that you’ve done on your course have prepared you for any challenges you could face in your desired job.

Ensure you have a really good personal statement that covers any lack of experience with plenty of knowledge and you should have your dream job in no time.
