What we're NOT doing:
Aimless wandering around. That doesn’t work for you or the employers. Nobody knows who to approach or what to say.
Lengthy presentations. You don't want to sit through them. Employers don't want to give them.
Missed opportunities and connections. Nobody wants to find out afterwards that they didn’t speak to the right people.
What we ARE doing:
Small group breakout rooms with employers you want to speak to. You'll have honest conversations and get quality insights about:
What the day to day is really like
What makes a standout applicant
The routes to employment
Where the real opportunities in the region are
The biggest benefits of attending?
You’ll leave this event with:
A clear understanding of the roles - and where the jobs are
What hiring managers are really looking for - beyond you’ll read on the website
More industry connections
A clear next step to take
