Are you a final year student looking for your first “proper” job? Sheffield Hallam University Careers and Employment Service are running the ‘Get That job! Boot Camp’ this September!
On Tuesday 8th September and Wednesday 9th September, the Careers Boot Camp will give you the skills to help get you your first job.
What will I be doing?
Boot Camp is action-packed and intensive, so come prepared to work. You will be thinking about yourself, what you are looking for…and developing a plan to help you get there. Over the two days you will:
- assess your strengths and skills
- discover different approaches to finding jobs
- hear from recent SHU graduates/alumni about their own experiences
- write a great CV/application
- find out how you can use LinkedIn
- have a go – practice being interviewed and take part in assessment centre activities
Previous Boot Campers have been full of praise for the Careers Boot Camp stating;
“I have gained more knowledge and understanding of what employers are seeking.”
“The CV, Interviews and Alumni talks were very useful as it enabled me to network.”
Who is Boot Camp for?
Boot Camp is aimed at 2014-15 final year ‘Home/EU’ students who already have an idea of the sector/industry or job/role they are looking for.
If you are unclear as to what career path to follow or if you do not have eligibility to work in the UK beyond early 2016, we suggest that you book a Careers Guidance appointment via the Careers and Employability Centre (tel: 0114 225 3752).
Dates:
8th and 9th September, 9am – 5pm (You need to be able to attend both days)
10th September : One-to-One 45 minute feedback appointments available throughout the day
Lunch and refreshments provided.
Give your job hunting a kick start and get yourself along to the Careers Boot Camp!
