Own your career with Liverpool

Whether you have always had a specific career path in mind, or you’re unsure at the moment, we’ll help you find where you want to be – and support you to get there.

We’re in the top 25 most targeted universities by the Times Top 100 Graduate Recruiters.

From the day you arrive at Liverpool, we’ll be working with you to help you realise your ambitions. We have developed a holistic approach to prepare you for your future career, and it’s an approach which gets results for our students.

You’ll probably never have greater opportunities open to you than you will at university. Learn a new skill, join a society, study abroad, get a part time job or volunteer... It’s all here for you to take advantage of, you just need to take the first step. And every opportunity you take helps to build transferrable skills that are great for your CV to help you stand out from the crowd.

We asked some of our current students and alumni to share their tips for making the most of your time here to take control of your career. Or you can view the full profiles here: Careers leaflet.

OUR PROMISE TO YOU

We’ll get to know you really well. You’ll meet lots of new people along the way and have the opportunity to try exciting things in new environments. By the time you leave us you will understand what comes next and be ready for success.
