Next Monday, the 6th of March, from 10 - 11 am we are holding a webinar (held on zoom) to tell you all about Gradcracker.

Gradcracker is the UK’s careers website for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) students. It has more STEM employers, work placements and graduate roles than any other careers website – and it also provides a wide range of resources, tools, and advice on careers in STEM. In this webinar, Gradcracker Director Jessica is going to talk us through the website and its features to help you become a successful job hunter and navigator of the application process. Jessica will cover things like key competency skills, extra-curricular activities, and ways to make your application stand out.

The webinar is also a great opportunity to discover STEM employers and the different industry sectors you can work in. You will also hear from Molly, president of the Stirling Women in STEM Society, and Lauren from Stirling's Careers Service. For valuable insights and advice, make sure to join us on the 6th of March at 10 am. We hope to see you there!
