Fairs

The Careers and Employability Service has involvement in a number of fairs both online and in-person across the university campus. These will allow you to learn about different opportunities from employers and organisations, and understand how to boost your CV and career prospects. Throughout the year, we work alongside other teams across the university to support fairs that will help you learn about the options available to get you career-ready. These include faculty and course-specific fairs, employer visits, and planning for the summer.

You can find our upcoming events through your MyCareer account, including our regular sessions, employer and entrepreneur presentations and large recruitment events. You can set up email alerts through your account so you'll be the first to know when new events are listed.
