Graduation is supposed to mark a new beginning, one that’s full of opportunity. But the months after leaving the university bubble can feel surprisingly overwhelming. So much so that many will experience the graduation blues, AKA the Quarter Life Crisis. It’s a time of massive change and uncertainty: relocating, leaving your friends, adjusting to life back home with your parents, finding paid work, choosing a career, all while working out how to become financially secure and living off a tight budget without student discounts.
Graduates might shine academically, but most leave university with limited life skills, ill-prepared for these real-world challenges. And there has always been an information chasm: students are not taught how to navigate the jobs market or rental market, and basic personal finance is rarely on the syllabus.
Grads tend to rely on family and friends for guidance, who themselves lack confidence to advise on careers and recruitment procedures, finances or rentals. Or they turn to the internet, where advice can be confusing, inaccurate, biased and agenda-pushing. A big part of the problem is graduates don’t know what knowledge they lack, and you can’t find the answers if you don’t know the questions.
And that is why we wrote this book! The perfect graduation gift for a university leaver or final year student, it’s packed with useful information to ease the transition from higher education into working life. It’s also a fantastic resource for careers experts working with students and graduates.
From career choices and job applications to sorting out finances and looking after your mental health, this book will help readers to devise a plan of action, execute it, and keep positive along the way.
This book…
- Gives practical tips for managing uncertainty, helps you see the ‘big picture’, set goals and make plans to keep you motivated.
- Explores the many options after university, from grad schemes and entry-level roles with businesses big and small, to further education, travel, entrepreneurship and self-employment.
- Shows you how to stand out in job applications: from CVs and online profiles to cover letters, tests and interviews, as well as how to nurture your network and get more out of work experience.
- Covers need-to-knows about student loans and bank accounts, how to budget and live within your means, tips for saving and navigating the rental market.
- Encourages you to tend to your physical and mental wellbeing – spanning fitness, food, stress and sleep – because staying healthy will make this period of change much easier to handle.
About the authors
Mother and daughter team, Julie and Sophie Phillipson, founded student/graduate site HelloGrads.com in 2016, when Sophie and friends began to navigate adult life, hampered by a lack of life skills and resources. Through the website, social media and events, they have helped thousands ease into life after university. The authors consulted all sorts of experts, from CEOs of multinationals to entrepreneurs of successful startups, recruiters, business advisers, careers services, youth counsellors, banks and property agents, as well as many graduates who have been through the uni-to-work transition. This helped them put together a rich source of information to show graduates the many possible routes to success and fulfilment.For a life stage that’s full of change and uncertainty, this graduate guide – written by graduates, for graduates – will help you take control and feel confident and upbeat about your future.

Derecho al desistimiento
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
