Student Information

Student Careers Information

 

UNIFROG

All students have access to a Unifrog account using their school login details. We encourage you to track your careers journey and what you do outside of school. This can help you build your skills audit, a competitive CV, and a greater understanding of your employability.

 

BARTON COURT CAREERS PLATFORM

Use our careers platform to access information about your future. It is regularly updated and gives you the opportunity to have your say too!

 

THESE WEBSITES CAN HELP WITH EARLY RESEARCH:

START

Once registered (for free), build your profile by identifying which skills and qualities you are strongest in, these are then “matched” to jobs you maybe suited to in the future. Delve deeper into the information to find out how many opportunities there maybe locally, what other jobs are similar and actual job openings. This “matching” works for some students but not all, as your ideas often change as you develop. However, with this website you can return to your profile time and again, as your skills develop and ideas change. 

 

NATIONAL CAREERS WEBSITE

This site contains hundreds of different job profiles, each with further links to explore and labour market information for each role and sector. 

 

ICOULD

Explore different roles and search by subject areas to find out where your choices could take you. Complete the personality quiz called “the buzz quiz” to see if your personality is a good fit with different occupations. This is useful for some students but not the only way to decide on your future choices.

 

16PERSONALITIES

Take this personality quiz to see how your character may link to your future career aspirations. Again suitable for some students but, not all.

 

CAREERSBOX

Find out what different occupations are like by listening to and watching people who do them. 

 

CAREERS THEORIES

Useful for finding out why your ideas and choices will change over time. Different ideas for teachers, parents and students who like to know a little more. 

 

WILL A ROBOT TAKE YOUR JOB

A quiz written by Oxford University and Deloitte exploring which jobs may be taken over by technology in the future.

 

WORKFINDER APP

This app enables you to find companies and jobs that you are interested in specific to the area that you live in or wish to work in. Well worth having a looks. The app works on both iOS and Android devices and can be downloaded.
