Conclusion and checklist

Please bear in mind that things change constantly, and job boards come and go as they fluctuate in popularity. If you find yourself searching for jobs again in a year or so, review this information carefully and check for new job boards / relevant social media or professional sites that are advertising. Whatever your circumstances, whether you are a student, a recent graduate or have several years’ experience, your unique experience and learning so far has equipped you to manage your job-hunting plans and your next steps. Here at Winchester, the Careers team aim to help you navigate your personal career path and we are proud to offer careers advice for life for all our graduates.
