Huh.

I'm currently investigating the UK Graduate advice site Prospects.

I've never sought or received careers advice before. This is kind of awesome.

Don't mention the failboatness of me only getting to this now, please? I'm aware. Believe me. XD

Its very likely that your University careers service will still help you too- mine helps graduates up to 5 years after graduation :D

Yay for finding a place that can provide help!

Also, I'm seconding pennyplanknits' comment about your university's career service center. :)

I've been using Prospects for a year - haven't found a suitable job there, but their information on potential careers and such (how to be an archivist etc) was very useful. And yes, have a look at your old uni's career centre. Mine has a policy of helping all graduates till the end of time, and they also have a website with job vacancies. There might also be websites for graduate jobs in your area. I was recommended www.milkround.com

Hope this helps!

You could come and be a naNNY.

*wheedles*

I mean, I know the job satisfaction is low. But there would be a room stuffed with Ikea furniture! And we feed people!

I AM SO TEMPTED OKAY. If I get a teaching job for next year, ask me again when I'm done with it. I have to get this sorted in the next couple of years or the grant'll have to be paid back anyway, otherwise I'd say yes directly.

Does being an overseas governess to a clearly very advanced child not count as teaching? I've ALWAYS WANTED to retain a governess.
