Usually it is left to【B1】______to deduce the potential from a list of extracurricular adventures on a graduate’ s resume, 【B2】______ now the University of Bristol has launched an award to formalise the achievements of students who 【B3】______ time to activities outside their courses. Bristol PLuS aims to boost students in an increasingly 【B4】______ job market by helping them acquire work and life skills alongside 【B5】______ qualifications.

"Employers are much more 【B8】______ than they used to be. They used to look for 【B9】______ and saw it as part of their job to extract the value of an applicant’s skills. Now they want students to be able to explain why those skills are【B10】______to the job."
    Students who sign【B11】______for the award will be expected to complete 50 hours of work experience or【B12】______work, attend four workshops on employ-ability skills, take part in an intensive skills-related activity 【B13】______, crucially, write a summary of the skills they have gained.【B14】______efforts will gain an Outstanding Achievement Award. Those who【B15】______best on the sports field can take the Sporting PLuS Award which fosters employer-friendly sports accomplishments.
    The experience does not have to be【B16】______organised. "We ’re not just interested in easily identifiable skills," says Goodman. "【B17】______, one student took the lead in dealing with a difficult landlord and so【B18】______negotiation skills. We try to make the experience relevant to individual lives."
    Goodman hopes the【B19】______will enable active students to fill in any gaps in their experience and encourage their less-active【B20】______to take up activities outside their academic area of work.
