Welcome to new and returning students

For new and returning students, a quick introduction to the “Careers and Placements” blog / twitter feed/ facebook page. Posts on the blog are forwarded automatically to the group https://www.facebook.com/csatncljobs and to @csatncljobs on twitter.

We use this blog for information about graduate careers, placements, employability events and resources.

Many more resources are offered by the Careers Service: see http://www.ncl.ac.uk/careers/workexperience/ for a full list of the guides, sessions and resources on offer. In particular, the list of resources for placement opportunities and shorter internships is extensive.
