Careers:

Employer Visits-

Campus Interviews - Final Week

It's your last chance this week to participate in the 'Milk round' of visiting employers. Designed to give students the opportunity to discuss career opportunities in an informal setting, the programme has seen almost as many students and interviews at '6K.P.' in the first four weeks as in the whole of last year's milkround.

Still plenty of appointments left. If you have only just cottoned on to the visits, don't despair, come in and make a couple of bookings for the rest of the week. It will never be more convenient for you to contact employers!

Newcomers to the list of employers originally printed in Salient some weeks ago are Television One (conducting two seminars) and Colgate-Palmolive who are coming out to the University for the first time. Fletchers and Todd Motors have pulled out due to an unexpected shortage of vacancies.

Students of all stages and subjects are welcome to make bookings, the only reservations being that on the more crowded schedules, final-year students have [unclear: th] priority.

Careers advisory interviews, and the Careers Library, remain available [unclear: througho] the Milkround.

Roger B. Bartley.

Careers Adviser.

PS Thanks to Salient for helping with Milkround publicity.
