Get started on Graduate Career Explorer! 

It is intuitive and easy to use. It can help you answer questions like:

  • What graduate careers can I do with my degree?
  • What job titles can I look for?
  • Which skills will make my CV appeal to employers?
  • Which towns and cities are recruitment hot spots?
  • How are my chances improved by commuting?
  • What can I earn?

Graduate Career Explorer gives you two reports for your degree:

  • Direct routes - Careers potentially suitable for a new graduate that are directly related to your subject.
  • Further possibilities - Careers that build on your degree, but which may require some additional qualifications and/or experience.

Graduate Career Explorer is a careers learning tool that gives you the ideas and information to plan your career and identify the sort of opportunities you're interested in and discover how they're spread over the country. We recommend that alongside it you use JobShop and other graduate jobs boards to find and apply for vacancies.
