Thankfully, Mubeen contacted me and brought me up to speed on every detail, made sure the job was the right fit for me, and gave me valuable advice on how to tailor my CV and cover letter to match the role’s requirements. He assisted me in the application and interview process and checked in on me every step of the way.

I came across a placement being advertised by SES on my University’s Career Hub. Mubeen supported me through the application process and helped tailor my CV and Cover Letter to the placement I had applied for. Mubeen was also very willing to answer any questions I had prior to the interview, which made me feel much more confident going into the interview. I have now been lucky enough to secure a placement with a fantastic company and without Mubeen’s help, I don’t think this would have been possible. I’m very grateful to SES for the support and will not hesitate to use their services again in the future when it comes to finding graduate opportunities.”

“I applied to a job advertised by SES and was contacted the following day with questions regarding my CV, availability and restrictions, and in less than one week they got me an interview and subsequently my new job. The people I contacted with were a pleasure to talk to as they were very friendly and helpful, helping me with my queries and keeping me in the loop at all times. I definitely recommend them.”

“As a second year student, I was seeking a placement within the Marketing/PR field with opportunities to learn and grow as a student in preparation for a career after my studies. I did struggle to find a placement due to my course background. Studying Psychology & Business, my degree is not directly related to the field in which I sought opportunities.
However, Student Employment Services helped me find a role perfect for my qualifications, studies and employment history. With special help from Mubeen throughout my application, I was offered advice to help improve my CV and tailor my cover letter for the role. As well as this, I was offered advice on how to be a successful candidate in the interview. I have secured the perfect placement thanks to the help provided by SES, and the guidance did not stop after an offer. The people at SES have helped me through any queries I have had about finalising my contract, enabling me to start my placement as soon as possible. I would recommend SES to any ambitious student seeking invaluable experience in a great company. Thank you for your help SES!”

“As a second year student studying Events Management, I undertook the task of searching for a placement position within the events industry. After many months of applying to certain companies and cooperations, I finally came across Student Employment Services and I couldn’t be more grateful for the help and advice I received from them.
From the outset I felt as though I was being guided through my search, with special thanks to Mubeen for helping me to finalise my CV and covering letter, along with helpful hints and tips to prepare me for interviews. Thanks to SES I have secured an amazing placement for the next year which I cannot wait to begin!
I would highly recommend SES to all students searching for a placement role.”

“After a few months of applying, unsuccessfully, for various placements with little guidance from other recruitment services I stumbled across SES and a fantastic Communications placement advertised there. I was pleasantly surprised at how much support I was given throughout the process. Even from my initial application I was always receiving updates about what was going on and the stage that my application was at. This was a huge relief as going through recruitment services often left me feeling forgotten about. With SES, even when there was no news they would email me just to let me know what was going on at the other end, which was very reassuring. Before my interviews, I was always asked how my prep was going and offered any last minute advice and tips, which were very helpful. SES (particularly Mubeen’s hard work) made the entire process run much more smoothly than others I had previously experienced and were always quick to respond to me. I really appreciate everything they did for me in helping me secure an exciting 12-month placement that I can’t wait to start! I would definitely recommend SES to any student looking for a work placement.”
