Students CV success
Three second year Biological Sciences students have been
rewarded for preparing excellent CV's as part of training in employability
skills.
The exercise, for all Year 2 students as part of their year assessment,
was led by the Careers Advisory Service and staff in Biological Sciences.
Each student prepared CVs and wrote specimen letters of applications for
jobs. They were joined by representatives from Anglian Water and Essex
County Council who shared their expertise in preparing job applications.
The students had their CVs assessed in key areas including skills
reflection, research, and overall presentation, and found the session very
valuable. One student commenting that; 'The information that was obtained
today will help all of us students forever…. when seeking employment.'
The winners were Alison Durant, Aishling Duggan and Jack Alonby who
were each presented with gift tokens donated by the Matchtech recruitment
agency.
