Job Opportunity Potential

In these appointments, you will have up to 45 minutes to talk to a careers adviser about whatever career-related topic is important to you. Topics of conversation could include:

  • I have no idea what I want to do after I graduate, what are my options?
  • What jobs can I get with my degree?
  • How do my skills fit in the labour market?
  • I’m interested in taking a gap year after I graduate and I want to plan something employers will value.
  • I’m thinking of leaving/changing my course and want to talk through the pros and cons.
  • I’m interested in doing a masters or PhD, what are my options?
  • I’m not sure how to disclose sensitive information to an employer.

A guidance interview is:
Impartial

A careers adviser will not recommend one route to you over another. They are there to help you explore the options objectively.

Challenging
Careers advisers may question your goals and help you to look at the disadvantages as well as the advantages. This is not to put you off, but to help ensure you have thought it through.

Supportive
The meetings are very informal and relaxed. Careers advisers are there to help you discuss things in a safe environment.

Part of a process
Career choice is a process not an event. A guidance interview is a good starting point but you will need to do further research and continuously update your action plan.
