The following Frequently Asked Questions will help you consider all your options and spot the benefits of researching them, no matter what your starting point is now:
- I know exactly which job I would like to enter. Why do I need to research more broadly and consider alternatives?
- What options are possible with my degree and my profile?
- What do graduates actually go into?
- I'm interested in postgraduate study as my next step, so why go to the trouble of researching into jobs and other options now?
The main reason given by students for undertaking postgraduate training is to enhance employability. Clearly to ensure that any course you choose actually does improve YOUR job chances, you need to know what type of work you wish to do. Otherwise you could have wasted your time and money.
Choosing the right course, for the right reasons is a whole topic in its self. If you are thinking of going down the post grad route see the post graduate section of the Prospects website. Further useful material is included in Research Resources.
