5.4 Careers Service
Careers guidance is provided by the Careers Service (http://www.careers.ox.ac.uk/), which also provides training in writing applications, interview techniques and analysis of transferable skills. The Careers Service provides information about occupations and employers, and advertises work experience opportunities.
In addition to its general programme, the Careers Service runs an annual ‘Jobs for Mathematicians’ half-day, in collaboration with the Mathematical Institute. At this event there are talks from alumni working in various industries and a talk for those interesting in continuing on to further postgraduate study. Further information about postgraduate study opportunities at the Mathematical Institute and Physics respectively can be found here:
