  • Check upcoming career events at your university.
  • Reserve a recurring slot for CVs, applications and interview prep.

Plan CVs, applications, placements and meetings separately.
Simplify errands and commuting before heavy academic weeks.
Use saved events and the task list instead of searching again.
