Welcome to the spring edition of Careerscope, your online guide to all things study, careers and gap. This term we’ve been beavering away to bring you a whole host of interesting new articles and films…

If you’re thinking of studying in one of the 40 Uni’s in London then read Paula’s piece on ‘What’s hot, or not, about study in the capital’.

Oliver has just returned from a Gap year in the Amazon rainforest and has written a brilliant item about How taking a gap year can change your life.

For all you budding chemists our friends at AstraZeneca have given us the low down on careers in the Pharmaceutical Industry.

We’re pleased to have Carl Gilleard, the man in charge of the Association of Graduate Recruiters to tell us what he thinks future employers will be looking for from you in terms of your Qualifications, Skills and Personality.

But that’s not all, we’ve a whole bundle of interesting stuff in each section, including a new ‘News Watch' with stories that effect you. We’re also pleased to announce we’ve teamed up with Careersbox to bring you a whole new library of careers films to help you with your future career choices.

If you’re a Futurewise member make sure you log into Careerscope through the Futurewise homepage so you get full access to the site, including the massive archive of all our previous career features.

Good luck with your career planning and enjoy the spring term!
