Career services

Due to Birkbeck’s unique evening teaching, many students find job opportunities by networking with the other students in their classes, many of whom will be working professionals in London.

The University of London Careers Service also provides a comprehensive service to graduates of Birkbeck, including organising graduate jobs fairs, help with writing CVs/resumes, one-to-one advice on finding work after graduation and advertising graduate job opportunities.

With the majority of lectures taking place in the evening, many students choose to undertake part-time work or internships during the day when they are not studying.
