The Careers and Employability Service at AFG College with the University of Aberdeen supports students by providing consultation and advice needed for effective career planning, opportunities for skills development and networking and connecting with sector representatives and different employers.
What do we offer?
- Career Mentoring Programme
-
As an undergraduate student (level 2 and above) or a postgraduate student at AFG College with the University of Aberdeen, you can register as a mentee in this programme and benefit from regular sessions with an experienced professional to gain one-to-one employability advice, support and guidance in a specific profession and/or sector.
In session 24/25, applications will be accepted on a rolling basis from Monday 4th November for all students. If your application is accepted and we can match you with a mentor, you will commence your three-month partnership at this point.
For more information about the programme and answers to Frequently Asked Questions, visit the Career Mentoring Programme website: www.abdn.ac.uk/careers/skills/career-mentoring.php
To apply, you will need to complete an online information course (20-30 mins) and an application form.
- Applying for work experience and graduate jobs
-
We support students at every step of the application process, from finding internships or graduate jobs, networking on LinkedIn, writing your CV and covering letter to interview support.
You can see our dedicated resources using the links above, view all resources with the link below, book an appointment for feedback and/or advice, Ask us a Question (online), or request a practice interview.
- Internships and opportunities
-
Students are encouraged to look for opportunities for work experience and internships. Although it is not an academic requirement, it is a great opportunity to develop skills and gain a better understanding of the work environment. We have a mini career course on finding internships which you may find useful.
The Careers and Employability Service announces different opportunities throughout the academic year to students interested in applying for on-campus or off-campus placements.
