Careers Information for Postgraduates

Your Careers Service. Your Future.

Our Careers Service isn't just for undergraduates - a quarter of all our appointments are with postgraduates. Whilst much of our website will help you whichever degree you're doing, as a postgraduate, you may also have more specialist career needs, so this section is just for you.

PhD or other doctoral research?

For doctoral level postgraduates, find out about academic and non-academic career options, and when's the best time to meet employers and apply for jobs.

Postgraduate masters

For masters and taught postgraduates, time is tight, so check out our timeline for what to do when, to move your career on by the end of your course.

Finding postgraduate jobs

For any postgraduate who wants to look beyond the standard graduate recruiters, we have strategies for seeking out those specialist jobs and employers.
