Application Success
When creating applications, it is critical to cover as many companies as possible while still tailoring each one to their specific needs. If you send the same CV to 100 different companies, 99 of them will receive the incorrect one. The DUFS has created a set of CV's, Covering Letters and Industry Guides to help you perform to your best.
Want us to review your CV?
Each year we hold CV clinics during Michaelmas and Easter term. It's a great opportunity for you to have your CV reviewed by DUFS executive members who have been in your position before. We'll support you by evaluating your CV and providing feedback. Sign up to our Newsletter to ensure you're aware of the next CV Clinic dates!
Secured an interview?
The DUFS maintains a database of current Durham students who have completed Spring Week or Summer Internship, or obtained graduate roles. If you would like advice with regards to interviewing with a specific firm or division, please email us at president@dufs.co.uk . Alternatively, reach out to us on social media via Facebook Messenger or Instagram Direct Messages.
We aim to put you in touch with a student who has similarly interviewed with that firm in the past. If you are able to offer advice to other students, please join our database using the link below.
