Research
1. Find out what you don’t know
See our upcoming events/seminars on MYCareerPath in the ‘Events’ tab
2. Skills inventory
What are your skills and strengths?
Make sure you practice the online assessments that all graduate employers use! They are easy to complete, and will only take up a few minutes of your time.
3. Create your Professional CV
Your Coop CV and your Professional CV are not the same!
Check out our CV Guide.
4. Make sure you’re on LinkedIn
You need to have a large network so you can use it later in your career!
LinkedIn is far more than a networking site with job vacancies – the site offers a way for students and graduates to explore their career options.
LinkedIn is a networking site, somewhere to find relevant jobs and an intelligence gathering tool for career development.
Find more information on LinkedIn here
5. Find out where to look
The best tool to learn about your target job market is Linkedin.
UL Alumni search will show you where past students of your course have landed in the job market.
6. Attend our Autumn Careers Fair
Our Autumn Careers Fair is the largest Graduate Careers Fair in Ireland.
Make sure to get down, meet the employers and explore all the opportunities that are available to you post graduation!
