Careers Articles

"I've now read through your manuscript and I think you have done a great job. Well done! I know it is hard to communicate such a technical subject in a way that is straightforward and engaging for this age groupbut I think you have done this very successfully."

Jessica Spencer, Commissioning Editor, Crimson Publishing

"I've now had a look through your draft. All flattery aside, I think it is a really very good summation. It is such a messy area that it is very difficult to avoid either giving so much information that it confuses, or too little. Your article manages to tell them exactly what the profession is about without overloading them."

James O'Connell, Institute of Paralegals

"I am extremely pleased with the feature - you have packed loads in, all very useful & relevant, and the tone is just right."

Vici Hoban, Features Editor, Nursing Times

"Hi Colin,

I have just finished editing your Health S(ector) B(riefing) . What can I say? I thoroughly enjoyed reading it! I had very little editing to do and had the pleasure of reading your text with few interruptions."

Gemma Green, Publications Officer, Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services.

"Thank you for this draft article (Computers and IT), which I thought was excellent. This is not an easy task, but you covered the key information required and kept it to a very tight word count."

Kerstin Taylor, Editor, VTCM Publications
