BackThe Placements / Work experience journal
Students: work through this journal to make the most of your experience

This guide is taken from the Know How Library, a tool on the Unifrog platform. Not sure whether to take the ACT or the SAT? Or how to give the perfect Oxbridge practice interview? The Know How Library is an easily searchable library of 100s of expert guides for both students and teachers, covering every aspect of the progression process. It is included as standard for Unifrog partner schools.
Choose the journal that best matches your experience, either a longer work experience placement or a shorter employer encounter or event.
These journals help you prepare for, record, and reflect on workplace experiences and employer encounters.
There are two journals available:
- the work experience/placement journal for longer placements, usually lasting several days or one to two weeks
- the multi-experience journal for shorter experiences, like workplace visits, insight days, employer talks, careers events, workshops, or taster sessions
