8 Reasons to Consider Further Study That You Wont Get Told at the Postgraduate Study Fair University of Manchester Careers Blog Written by Anna Lomas, Employability Consultant at the Careers Service. I could take this opportunity to reel off the sensible reasons why postgraduate study is definitely something you should consider â€" because you’ll demonstrate that you’re tenacious, capable of self-managing and working independently or because you’ll develop your critical thinking, analytical and research skills â€" all things which will ultimately make you more employable. I’m not though. You want a genuine reason to go to Paperchase to buy more stationary. 2. Youre not ready to give up your NUS card and student discounts just yet. 3. You liked graduating so much, you want to do it again. 4. You simply cant bear the fact that the reality of a 9-5 job could be less than a year away. 5. You can legitimately use the excuse Sorry I cant come Ive got Uni work to do. 6. YOU DONT HAVE TO PAY COUNCIL TAX. 7. You get to add a fancy title to the end of your name. 8. I REPEAT. NO COUNCIL TAX. Ok, so we’re being a bit irreverent. I guess what we’re trying to say is that there are a whole host of reasons why you might consider postgraduate study as your next step and they’re all equally valid.
