Students Are You in the Right Field
January 23rd, 2007 by get a first class degree
Students are you in the right field is a post I found on a Canadian site (CareerRamblings.com) with career advice for students.
Although some of the advice is more relevant to Canadian students, a lot of it is generic, with some really useful pointers such as:
- Taking an aptitude / personality test to help you select a career
This is absolutely brilliant advice, many employers will profile you as part of the selection process, applying for jobs to which you have already been matched will not only be an advantage in the selection process, but increase the odds of finding a job you actually enjoy.
Another post worth reading is the Top 10 Resume Blunders as well as a post on what to take on an interview
Not all of the advice given will be appropriate for students to follow, but there are some good easy to follow pointers which are definitely worth bearing in mind.
There are lots of other posts on career advice, finance, and a funny clip of What Not To Do At Interviews!
