Careers appointments

Once you’ve carried out your research using this website, you may have questions related to your individual circumstances and career path. To talk to a member of staff, you can: 

• book an appointment
• call in and use the drop-in service, or
• email your enquiry (only for graduates or current students who live or are studying outside the area or overseas)

  

Appointment types

We have different types of appointments offered at University Park, Jubilee Campus and at Sutton Bonington:

• 15 minute appointments to have your CV, application form or personal statement reviewed
• 20 minute advice appointments to discuss starting points and relevant resources
• 20 minute law appointments for those considering a career in the legal profession
• 30 minute appointments for those who have had a 20 minute appointment and wish to discuss their ideas further.

Please arrive for your appointment on time. If you are five minutes late for your CV appointment or 10 minutes late for your advice appointment, the adviser will be unable to see you.

If you need help using My Career, please read our leaflet   or watch our 2 minute YouTube video! Script for video. If you are unable to access YouTube, use our alternative location.

 

Drop in sessions - no appointment needed

During term time, we offer drop-in sessions at University Park on:

• Wednesdays between 10.30am and 12.30pm
• Thursdays between 1pm and 3pm
• Fridays between 2pm and 4pm

Simply sign in at reception to talk to a member of staff. Slots are limited and you will need to wait your turn.

Email enquiries

We expect current students to book appointments or use the drop-in to speak to a member of staff but if you are a University of Nottingham graduate or you live or study outside the area or overseas, you may wish to make your initial contact by email.

Please note that we are not able to provide a detailed critique of CVs or application forms by email.
