Online options
Websites such as Linked In and Xing are
often considered networking tools for
experienced professionals but they are also
useful for new graduates. The first step is
to create your own profile, remembering
to include any and all work experience
you’ve gained and referencing achievements
both inside and outside education. Be
specific. If you don’t have a lot of career
experience, a graduate profile can appear
quite bare, so giving details of specific
successes you have had will help your
profile stand out from the crowd.
