On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This session will focus on how to boost your CV and write compelling cover letters when applying for jobs in the heritage sector. It will provide top tips for how to build your practical experience and how to articulate the transferable skills gained through your studies at Oxford. It will also highlight common pitfalls and errors in applications and how to interrogate job descriptions to ask what, exactly, employers want.

Charles Pugh (Consultancy Manager, National Trust)
Alice Purkiss (National Trust Partnership Lead, University of Oxford)
