Are you looking for help to improve your chances of finding a civil engineering job? Or is your current job unsuited to your skills? If so, we could help.

ICE and our Benevolent Fund will be hosting a workshop in Birmingham for graduates and technicians. Participants will be able to enhance a range of skills to help with everything from finding the right jobs through to producing a successful application and interview.

The workshops, run by career specialists Chiumento Consulting, will feature an intensive one-day programme with group sessions and smaller break-out sessions. Covering all aspects of job searching and application in a simple and informative way, you’ll get practical help and examples at every stage.

The workshop will equip you with the confidence to:

  • Match your skills to different jobs – by understanding your skills and experience and seeing how they readily transfer to civil engineering roles and organisations
  • Enhance your CV – by producing an effective and fit-for-purpose CV selected from a variety of formats, and making use of an extra one-to-one advice session by phone or Skype
  • Carry out effective job searches – by recognising the value of networking and good research to job search success
  • Submit successful applications – by producing strong letters and application forms that put you ahead of the rest

There is a charge of £20 per workshop place. A one-to-one phone or Skype CV review, a workbook full of job hunting tips and access to more career advice online are all included in the cost. Food and refreshments will also be provided on the day.

Visit our Graduate Workshops web page for more details of the workshop format and content.
