As a postgraduate student at Cambridge, you will be entitled to use the University Careers Service from the moment you arrive, throughout your research studies, and after you've graduated. If you do not have a clear idea what to do after your studies – or too many ideas – the team of Careers Advisers can help you think through your options, explore ideas, and find and the future that is right for you.
There is plenty of help available to take you to the next step; one to one guidance consultations; an extensive programme of briefings and skill sessions; 14 major careers events each year; coordinated employer presentations; a free book on CVs and Applications; and a database of over 4,00 graduate level job vacancies, covering a wide range of sectors.
