Newcastle University Career Support and Advice
It's never too early to start thinking about your options - the earlier you start, the more time you will have to identify your goals and take the first steps towards achieving them.
Our Careers Service offers expert advice to help you explore your career options, whether have definite or very few ideas about what you want to do.

- help you identify careers that will suit you
- assess what skills you already have and the skills you need to develop to achieve your goals
- provide feedback on your CV or job application
- arrange a mock interview
