Student Progress in Practice

SCIENCE
From Chemistry to an Industry Placement

Starting point: A chemistry student approaching placement applications needed clearer sector direction and a more targeted approach to employers.

Our support: J&J combined industry mentoring, employer research and application preparation, connecting the student’s academic background with relevant opportunities.

Outcome: The student secured a one-year placement with a pharmaceutical company. This case illustrates how focused preparation can support the transition from university study into industry.

LAW

Turning Legal Experience into Career Evidence

Starting point: A law graduate pursuing paralegal roles and training contracts needed practical UK experience alongside application support.

Our support: J&J coordinated a placement involving commercial research and drafting, alongside CV reviews and interview preparation focused on explaining the student’s own contribution.

Progress: The student built practical legal experience and was offered a placement extension. At the recorded review, applications were ongoing; no permanent role or training contract outcome was confirmed.

CAREER DIRECTION

Moving from Exploration to Focused Action

Starting point: A student with interests across consulting, policy and business had explored widely but needed to turn that exploration into practical next steps.

Our support: J&J reviewed the student’s experience and developed a six-week plan centred on role research, mentor feedback and evidence for applications.

Progress: The next phase had a clearer structure: test a small number of directions and take action. This was an ongoing development journey, with employment outcomes still to be established.
