Feedback

Dasha Krasnodembskaya, a third year student, kindly reviewed Careers360 for us.  Here is her feedback:

I found Careers360 to be a great resource that will allow anyone to progress through their career journey by expanding their horizons and accessing various tools which teach specific skills such as CV writing or provide information to burning questions like “What are my strengths?”.

Careers360 is easily accessible, the content is well organised and the language clear throughout.  The more you interact with it, the more you can shape and filter resources around your needs and interests. I found the materials available very engaging from videos to tests or simple reading material. As a result, it is something that can be done in any setting or any time slot! I hope other students will find it useful no matter if they have just started their first year or in the process of writing their dissertation. Practice interviews, CV checkers, etc are timeless!

This new online resource is a great addition to the Careers Centre’s website.  Sign-in today and see how it can help you on your career journey!

And finally

We hope you find this new resource helpful.  If you have any questions or feedback, just drop us an email to [email protected].
