Theatre and Performance Studies News

Welcome to the Theatre and Performance Studies departmental alumni careers networking event! This has been specifically arranged with your personal development in mind. We want to give current students ideas about possible career paths and are delighted to welcome back graduates from the department who have generously given their time to come and speak with you. Do make the most of this excellent opportunity for you to talk with graduates who are working in a wide variety of areas. Through one-to-one conversation, you will gain careers advice and valuable insights in an informal and friendly atmosphere. Think carefully about the questions you would like to ask of the very people who were in your shoes a couple of years ago. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

• What strategies did you use to get relevant work experience?

• What do you like most/least about your job/work?
• How did you find your job? Where was it advertised?
• What recruitment process did you go through?
• For those who have completed further training/qualifications post Warwick, how did you go about funding this?
• How have you acquired further relevant skills?
• What professional bodies do you belong to?
• How do you keep up with industry news?  

We hope that you enjoy the evening and look forward to receiving your feedback!
