The Careers and Employability Service

The Careers and Employability Service provides information and advice on all you need to know about planning your career – be it working for a big firm, supporting a community organisation, studying for a higher degree, or taking time out to travel the world.
 
And because our services are all about you, we believe we can be relied on to give you a head start in whatever career you decide to follow.

But relax. We’re not just here for those who were born knowing what they want to do. In fact, we specialise in helping those for whom life after University is for the time being one great big open book.

We can put you in touch with dozens of top employers, introduce you to lots of stunning new career ideas, and even help you write world class CVs and applications. All that and much more.  All you have to do is take the first step – after all, it is your career we’re talking about.

We offer:

• Hundreds of part time, term-time job vacancies
• Graduate job vacancies
• Opportunities to meet organisations that want to recruit Liverpool graduates
• Personal consultations with careers advisers
• Volunteering opportunities in Liverpool, across the UK and overseas
• Specialist help with CVs, applications and interviews
• Information on further study options
• Advice and information on taking a year out
• Skills development opportunities
• Holiday jobs and work experience opportunities across the world (and in Liverpool)
• Impartial advice about your options with your degree.
