Day 1: Update your CV
Graduate Opportunities If you haven’t been able to secure an interview; it could be down to your
CV. Most recruiters scan CVs, spending less than 15 seconds on your
first page. Prepare a draft of your CV and arrange a meeting with a

Day 2: Plan your applications
Before sending off application after application,
think what you want to do and how it matches
with what you are qualified to do. There might
be career options open to you of which you
have not thought. Come and discuss with a
careers adviser.
Day 3: Social networking
Use Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn to search for jobs. Many companies
use the social media channels to advertise their vacancies.
Day 4: Make contacts
Chatting to recruiters informally and keeping up to date with their
companies is a great way to find out about jobs before anyone else. Get
on Twitter and LinkedIn.
Day 5: Tidy up your online presence
Many recruiters will Google your name, so make sure you keep those
dodgy Facebook pictures private.
Day 6: Brand yourself
Why not have your own site showcasing your capabilities? You should
tailor your project to your job interests, so a wannabe web designer
should showcase beautiful and functional websites.
Day 7: Do your research
You have found a job you like. Now make sure you do your research
thoroughly. Look through the company’s media centre and see what it has
been up to in the press. Read articles about the sector it operates in. Be
critical. Think about what you would do to improve the business.
2. Day 8: Be resilient
It is easy to be downhearted over Christmas if your job search isn’t going
