Your Graduate Career Health Check
This Health Check will help you identify areas where you are weak or strong approaching job or placement applications. The total checklist should take no longer than 1-2 minutes to complete and the results to each question should guide your next steps.

We recommend you answer each question honestly and act on the following advice once you receive your Score out of a total of 10 points.

Once you submit your responses at the end of the Health Check, your feedback score will inform your next steps:

Score 0-3: MAKE AN APPOINTMENT for a One-to-One with Careers & Employability
Score 4-6: COMMIT TO CV ACTION PLAN with the Graduate Futures Toolkit - Me & My CV
Score 7-10: CONTINUE TO EXCEL and complete Your Graduate Attributes Workbook

GOOD LUCK!
