Final-year students have exclusive access to the University’s Graduate Recruitment Consultancy (GRC).

Based in the Careers and Employability Service, the team is on hand to support you throughout your graduate job search journey. Here’s how they work:

  • Get to know you, your skills and your interests
    The team will get to know your areas of interest and identify industries that would be ideal for you. Don’t worry if you’re not sure what you want to do yet: we can help you explore roles!
  • Find graduate jobs that match your skills and interests
    Once the team understands your skills and interests they get to work sourcing the best jobs in the local area. They work with over 3,000 employers from a range of industries across Hampshire and the surrounding areas.
  • Submit applications on your behalf
    All you need is a tailored CV which our Careers Advisers are on hand to help with.
  • Coach you through the interview process
    Once you’ve secured an interview, our consultants can give you advice and guidance to get ready with confidence. Our expert Career Advisers can also offer mock interviews.
  • Negotiate salary and benefits
    So you got the job! The support doesn’t stop there. We work with you and the employer to ensure you get a fair salary and benefits package before you sign any contract.

 

Why register with us?

As a University service, the GRC is exclusively available to University of Portsmouth final-year students and graduates. Unlike many recruitment agencies, they don’t work on commission or for employers. That means your best interests are at the heart of everything they do.

Finding a graduate job can be stressful, particularly while completing the final year of your degree. So let us support you and take the extra burden away. Access jobs exclusively available to those registered with the GRC.
