University of Portsmouth

The placement offices at your university can assist you in locating an appropriate placement as well as in preparing for a year-long or short-term self-employed placement. They will assist you during your placement as well.

The University has many connections with organisations and enterprises from many areas and backgrounds. Placement offices can assist with tasks like:

• Keeping you informed of the potential placement year employment
• Assisting you in finding appropriate roles to apply for
• Putting together your portfolio, application forms, cover letters, and resume
• Holding assessment centres, simulated interviews, application reviews, and interview practise
• Assisting you at employability events to connect with future employers
• Performing pre-placement inspections, such as occupational health examinations, DBS checks, and obligatory training requirements

The Careers and Employability Service can also provide assistance with your placement application and interview processes. It offers tools that can be used to find possible employers, get applications ready, and organise placement interviews. If you decide to spend your placement year working for yourself, the team can still help you.
