Attend Events
º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ students are highly sought after by employers. So here in Careers Network we provide you with a variety of excellent opportunities to meet them. We run hugely popular careers fairs, skills sessions, company presentations, employer pop-ups and more. This gives you the chance to engage with employers both in person and online to explore a range of career options, talk directly to recruiters, hear about upcoming roles and get company-specific information in an informal environment.
Careers Network Events
Careers Fests
For the first few weeks of Semester 1 and Semester 2 we run a series of events as part of our Careers Fests, designed to help you on your career journey. Hear from our experts in Careers Network and meet employers from a variety of industries, to find out what opportunities they are promoting, including graduate, internship, placement and volunteering roles. At the appropriate time of the year, all our events are advertised on Target Connect and promoted widely across the University.
Annual Careers Fairs
º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ is well known for its Autumn and Spring Careers Fairs, our high profile flagship events, attracting hundreds of employers and students. By speaking with employers face to face, you can gain inside knowledge about how organisations work and top tips on how to be successful in their application processes. Don't miss out on this opportunity to meet multiple employers on the same day on your own University campus!
Visit our dedicated website to find out more about the Careers Fests and Careers Fairs.
Employer Events on Campus
Employers are invited to campus throughout the year and we organise a number of opportunities to meet a single organisation during a drop-in session, pop-up attraction, employability skills training, interview day, sector specific insight event or presentation. Look out for notifications of these events via newsletters and emails and to find out more and book visit Target Connect.
Careers Events for You
To provide tailored and specialist events at the right point on your University journey, we sometimes run events in partnership with your academic school. Look out for these throughout the year.
We also run a series of central 'Futures' programmes targeted at particular groups of students. To see the events tailored for you, click on the relevant button below, or go straight to Target Connect to search and book.
External Employer Events
We regularly advertise external events that employers are holding. These are usually held online but are sometimes based in the organisation’s offices (a great opportunity to see where you could potentially be working!) These events are designed to:
- Up-skill you in their recruitment process.
- Provide inside knowledge on how to be successful in their application process.
- Tell you about the amazing opportunities they have available.
- Give you the opportunity to ask questions about their organisation and opportunities.
You can find these on Target Connect using the filtering feature and searching for ‘external event adverts.’
