I totally agree that universities devote little time to informing students about possible career options. I graduated two and a half years ago and it wasnt until i started working in professional archaeology that I found out archaeological consultancies existed and that many offered graduate schemes. I wish I had been made aware of this at university as this is an area I have been keen to get in to. As it is, I am now in the inbetween stage where I am no longer a graduate but do not have enough experience to join a consultancy at the level most are looking for (five years plus experience).
