Hi, I'm Susan Smith and i'm here to support you with your career planning and applications to graduate jobs.

I am running a series of workshops for Years 1, Year 2, Year 3 and PG students.

There are also 2 key events happening specifically for Geography Students.

Please do make time to give your career some thought.   I do appreciate there is a lot going on with lectures, assignments and I'm sure part-time work, but each event will add to your planning and help you cut through the 'noise' to focus on what you actually need to do in order to boost your career outcomes.
