Careers Support for One-year Master's Students
Events and support for students on 9- or 12-month courses at Oxford University
Are you about to start a 9- or 12-month course at the University of Oxford? Think about careers early on so that you don’t miss out!
Michaelmas term is packed full of careers activities and chances to meet employers. Starting as early as -2nd week of term, we are running a wide variety of workshops and information sessions, 6 careers fairs, and original skill-development programmes such as the Oxford Strategy Challenge.
Note that some sectors recruit early with autumn deadlines (e.g., management consultancy, banking, civil service and others) so Michaelmas term is the time to take action, attend events and job fairs, and work on your applications.
