Five tips for your job search

  1. Make a thorough inventory of your skills, your knowledge and your experience.
  2. Read up on potential employers and look at job advertisements in your field of interest to get an idea of what is required. Conduct an 'informational interview'.
  3. Create tailored application documents (targeting your application towards specific jobs you are applying for takes time, so make sure you start the process as early as possible).
  4. Build your professional network to create opportunities for the future (by doing an internship, being active at LinkedIn and by participating at career fair days)
  5. Prepare well for the interview – think about how you want to present your skills and what questions you want to ask the employer – to get the most out of the interview.

Jobs and career paths

During your studies, questions may arise about what jobs might suit you after your studies. On the programme or course page, you can find examples of possible professions and career paths for your specific programme or course.

By reflecting on the courses you have taken and the knowledge you have acquired, you can more easily market yourself and your skills.
