Careers

We asked some of our experienced alumnae for thoughts and tips on their jobs. What you’ll find here are upfront and honest opinions, where you get to hear both the pros and cons.

Many of the contributors are also happy for you to contact them personally. For further details login to the Alumnae Members area. Alternatively join our careers forum and share your own experience.

Work experience

Having work experience on your CV is becoming more and more important. It's not always easy lining up a suitable placement, so if you are looking for an opportunity, a GDST alumna may be able to help. All you need to do is submit a short form with your CV.

Apply for possible work experience placements.

Universities

If you’re thinking about going to university, we can help. We can put you in touch with people doing courses that interest you. We can hook you up with people at individual universities, too. Prospectuses are very useful, but there’s no substitute for listening to people’s first-hand experiences.

We can help you with interview advice, too, so you can feel better prepared.

Contact us and let us know how we can help, or alternatively join our universities forum and share your own experience.
