Careers Day

Today I attended a careers event called Future Focus for final year DPhil students. I'm not sure how helpful it was, to be honest. At the time, I thought it was telling me useful things about job applications, though in hingsight I'm not sure what I'd do differently. The practice interviews we had with each other were all very well, but answering pre-prepared questions asked by another student is no where near as daunting as proper interviews even I've had, much less ones in front of a full panel and even real students... Nonetheless, it was quite an enjoyable day in a way. I got to meet several other students from other subjects, which put us all in the spirit of net-working.
