If you're a new fresher, prepare for what might well be the craziest week of your life. If you want an insight into what a freshers' night out really means, here are a few inevitable moments you'll no doubt experience...
You're fresh out of uni and about to start your first day in the real working world. All the hours, days and months of job searching, writing tailored CVS and cover letters, preparing for job interviews, have been leading up to this moment.
You did all the prep, you practiced the questions and answers with your mate, you read about the company till you felt like the CEO and you know exactly what you're talking about.

Student life can be a real stress. So why not make your time easier with some fun apps to keep you motivated and organised?
What food do you think of when you imagine student living? Kebabs, chips, pot noodles? Cheap and cheerful, but not all that healthy.
