This week we welcomed two recent graduates back to the
University to talk to our third year Geography and Environmental Science
students about life after University.
Tommy Fojut spoke about his current role as a Graduate Transport
Planner. He spoke about what the role
involves, what the application process was like, and about the importance of
getting relevant work experience. Matt
Gibbs outlined how he had used speculative applications to gain an internship
in the marketing sector. He explained
how this internship had led to an opportunity for a paid position, and
described his current role. Both Tommy
and Matt answered questions from the students and gave tips on what they could
do now to enhance their employ ability.
