CV checklist handout

Evidence of skills - example


Eg. Organisation skills
 I worked as an activity leader on a children's summer camp in
 America. There were ten leaders and due to bad weather we had
 to come up with a plan to keep the children busy indoors. I
 suggested we brainstorm some ideas and then get into groups of
 three to spend an hour developing one idea each. I then drew up a
 rota so that we all knew what we were doing and when. The extra
 activities were popular and the other leaders were happy to have
 shared the workload and limited the amount of additional work.
Evidence of skills


How can you gain experience and develop skills?

Working in the UK after graduation


Tier 2 (General) open to recent graduates with a Bachelor's or
 Master's degree, PhD, or a PGCE or PGDE, from a UK
 recognised or listed body.

•     Applicants must have an offer of a skilled job from a licensed
    sponsor and be paid as specified in the relevant UKBA Code of
    Practice, but not less than £20,000
Working in the UK after graduation


• If you apply before your student visa expires in the UK the
  employer will not have to meet a ‘resident labour market test’ to
  show they have been unable to fill the position by a resident
  worker, and the jobs will not be subject to the annual limit on Tier
  2 numbers (i.e. Certificates of Sponsorship ‘Unrestricted’)

• Applicants will need to hold £900 in their own bank account for a
 period of 90 consecutive days
Working in the UK after graduation


• UKCISA http://www.ukcisa.org.uk/
• UKBA http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/
Next steps …..

1. Clarify your career plans, consider who to apply to, you could
   target firms already on the register of Tier 2 sponsors

2. If you are offered a position and given a ‘Certificate of
   Sponsorship’ you can apply for permission to stay in the UK for
   up to three years

3. Direct employers to the information on the UKBA web site
   about joining the register of Tier 2 sponsors if they have not
   joined yet
Next steps…..


4. Research the organisation carefully and think about how to
   provide evidence of your suitability for a position.

5. Try networking – do you have any contacts which would
   enable you to make a personal approach.

6. Develop a back up career plan that does not depend on getting
   a UK work permit – Include applying for options in your home
   country.
Messages from UK employers...


• Many of the employers at our Graduate Fairs are already Tier 2
  sponsors
  For example - Amex, Baker Tilley, Deloitte, Grant Thornton,
  Santander, Accenture, Capgemini, Cummins, Edwards, FDM
  group, General Electric, Logica, Mitsubishi
• There has been a positive response to the changes from
  employers visiting the University of Sussex including BT and
  Logica.

  international graduates.

  • 5. Evidence of skills - example Eg. Organisation skills I worked as an activity leader on a children's summer camp in America. There were ten leaders and due to bad weather we had to come up with a plan to keep the children busy indoors. I suggested we brainstorm some ideas and then get into groups of three to spend an hour developing one idea each. I then drew up a rota so that we all knew what we were doing and when. The extra activities were popular and the other leaders were happy to have shared the workload and limited the amount of additional work.

  4. Students from outside the EEA are restricted to the number of hours you can work each week during term time. The University of Sussex guidelines recommend that undergraduate students work for a maximum of 15 hours per week during term time. Some postgraduates find that they can fit in 20 hours per week but this will depend on you and your course. Before undertaking any employment you should satisfy yourself that your studies will not be affected. Many students work full-time during vacations. Vacations are the times outside the academic year ie the term dates. Full-time work in the UK is normally seen by employers as around 37 hours a week. A lot of you will be interested in finding work on campus. The University policy is to advertise part time jobs to students so jobs do come up. The University often employs students to work in administration positions and also to help out at events such as Open Days and our graduate recruitment fair.Jobs on campus are very competitive and go quickly so make sure you make a good application and apply early. We can help you with your CVs, application forms etc
  5. There are many ways of finding part time work, but we suggest that you start with the online jobs listing from the Careers & Employability Centre. This is the University’s database of jobs for students and recent graduates. As well as on campus, you’ll see jobs advertised in Brighton & Hove and the surrounding area.We’re not an employment agency so we don’t place you in jobs but we make them available to you. You apply directly to the employer. Competition can be tough so you’ll need an excellent application
