Career Support

If you would like support with your career planning i.e. making or navigating choices; understanding the pathway to your chosen career; developing skills for success; standing out in the recruitment process (including writing stand out applications and interviewing successfully) then make an appointment with an Employability Adviser or a Careers Adviser in the Careers & Employability Service.   You can book by clicking the first link on https://www.kent.ac.uk/ces/index.html

Kent Law School’s Professional Mentoring Scheme aims to help you make career choices, understand the legal working world or navigate the application process for both work and study.

A mentor can really help you to develop your understanding of a career, assist in growing your network and give excellent tips for successful job hunting (often including CV advice, mock interviews and sometimes work experience!)
