Solent Careers - get to where you want to be

All students at Solent University have access to our dedicated careers service – Solent Careers.  We offer a range of services which can be accessed online and in person. Our advice and support can help put you in the best possible position for your dream career. 

While you're studying we can support you with finding part-time work, volunteering experience and placements. We can check your CV, LinkedIn profile (or help you create one) and applications, as well as offering one-to-one guidance appointments. If you would like instant feedback on your CV, why not use CV360, our online CV checker on Solent Careers Online. 

Why not apply for a campus job where you could find part-time work and experience on campus? These roles are advertised on Solent Careers Online where we also promote opportunities outside of Solent, including part-time vacancies to help fund you while you study, work experience and graduate opportunities. We're also holding a part-time jobs fair in October - a great opportunity for you to meet local employers who are looking to fill vacancies.

Solent Careers Online offers advice on looking for work and lots of other useful information. Simply log in with your University email and password for lots of online hints and tips.

Also, look out for our employer events and employability and enterprise workshops which take place throughout the year. Details can be found on the Portal.

If you're looking to do more creative work or set up a business, we offer practical help and workshops to help you. Did you know that through Solent Careers, you can pitch for business start-up funding and business support? 

What next? We suggest you contact the team as soon as you can so we can support you with your CV and careers support from the start of your time at Solent - send us an email to solent.futures@solent.ac.uk.

We’re looking forward to working with you!
