Online Careers Library
If you are considering working outside the UK, Career Discovery can provide you with a range of useful resources including a guide on the Convention de Stage (an internship agreement sometimes needed by those job hunting overseas).
Search for working abroad to discover guides on working outside the UK, including work experience. Alternatively, to find information about working in a specific country, search for ‘working in [country name]’. Examples include, working in Asia, working in Europe, and working in the US.
Cost of living abroad
Make sure to look into the cost of living of the country you are planning to work in. Do this as early as possible, to help plan your budgets.
You can use Numbeo to help you with finding out the cost of living of the city or country you are visiting. Numbeo even allows you to compare costs between locations, in case you have a few options in mind.
International student employment data dashboard
We are often asked if we hold data on what students from particular countries will go on to do after leaving UCL, and where they do it. Our data dashboard is a way we can share the information we hold with our current students.
