Postgraduate masterclass: Planning your career - 'What I know now that I wish I knew then’

In the first careers event of the academic year, Director of Postgraduate Taught Studies Professor Ken Lee shared advice on thinking about careers and education.

One issue considered at length was the importance of working with people we feel comfortable with and how this is often a really good guide to the best job market choices.

Also addressed was how to deal with weaknesses in your CV, which creates much anxiety among students.
