1-2-1 Careers Appointments

We have a dedicated PGR careers consultant, Kenneth Howgill, working with us 2 days a week. PGRs can book an appointment with Kenneth to discuss your careers options, get feedback on a job application or help with an interview.

All appointments are 50 minutes long. You can book your appointment via MS Bookings; please email researcherdevelopment@exeter.ac.uk if you encounter any technical difficulties.

Currently appointments are taking place via Microsoft Teams to ensure all our PGRs can access this support – regardless of where they are based. Once you have booked an appointment, you will received a confirmation email asking you to email a copy of your CV and information about what you want to discuss to our PGR Career Coach.

Appointment bookings must be made through the booking system.

Due to the popularity of these appointments, and the limited resource, it is crucial you cancel your appointment on Inkpath as soon as you can if you are unable to attend. This means the appointment can be made available to another PGR.
