University Careers Services
At some point in the future, we may build our own directory and review base of University Careers Services. However, for the time being, this link to the Prospects database or this one to AGCAS (the professional association for HE careers services) will probably suffice. Interestingly enough, the way the resources and services at each one varies quite a lot; you should contact your own Uni first but you don't necessarily have to be a student at a particular Uni to avail yourself of some of their services.
With the current pressure on finding a job when you graduate, you should make regular contact with them and maybe even include it as part of your decision making considerations when you choose which Uni to study at in the first place. Most offer CV writing help, job board directories, schedules of their graduate recruitment events and other useful links.
If you're not sure whether you want to go to Uni, you can find lots of alternative ideas at notgoingtouni.co.uk - download their free guide from their listing below.
If you are still at school or in the age 13 to 19 age bracket then the Connexions Direct service is for you although this service is currently under threat of closure as part of the public sector cuts programme.
