Welcome back everyone to the new year at college! A special mention to those
of you entering your final year. You've just figured out your new lecture timetable, your boss from your summer job wants you to work extra hours at the weekends (and in this climate who can refuse?), and now we come along telling you about all the job hunting seminars we offer to help you stand out from the crowd in what is currently an employers market. The full list is available at http://www.ucc.ie/careers/events.php
or you can download our autumn schedule leaflet here:

To make life easier for you we’ve repeated the talks on different days and scheduled them for lunchtimes and evenings, so if you’re worried about the star quality of your CV or your stage presence at interview make sure to try and catch some of the talks on offer.
For those of you who have yet to decide what broad career area interests you there are talks spotlighting different Industry sectors such as “Your science degree what next?” or “Careers in Management and Marketing” taking place in late October, early November and these are open to all years.
And finally for those of you who have narrowed down your career choice already, don’t miss the Milkround - where the top Graduate Employers visit campus at 6pm most evenings throughout October and November to explain why you should apply to work for them. Despite the downturn these firms are still hiring and have genuine vacancies on offer coupled with an excellent 1-2 year training scheme. There’s an impressive list from the Big 4 Accountancy firms, to Dairygold, Abbot, William Fry Solicitors and Sotheby’s to name but a few booked in so why not sign up to our twitter page for daily reminders and alerts of what’s on that day

We’ll be blogging regularly to help you make the most out of the year ahead and prepare for your future after you graduate.
