Careers fairs

Where employers come to talk to you

Careers fairs are the single best way to establish meaningful connections with a range of employers. Fairs offer you the opportunity to ask questions about employers and build relationships.

Employers have specifically registered for these fairs to meet you, so prepare beforehand and use this opportunity to get a head start in the competitive graduate and internship market.
