Careers Fairs

Autumn Careers Fair

The annual Autumn Careers Fair took place on Tuesday 15 and Wednesday 16 October 2024 across three campus venues: Whitla Hall, South Dining, and Mandela.

Over 170 organisations took part in the event with an extensive waitlist for more spaces.

Over 3,500 students attended the event across the two days and this resulted in networking opportunities and valuable connections between businesses and their future leaders.

We would like to thank all the team involved including staff, students and employers in making this event a great success.

Also, a big thank you to our three sponsors: Grant Thornton, FinTru, and Allstate .

We look forward to our next big fair event the ‘Spring Careers Fair’ coming 05 February 2025 .

It was amazing basically because we found a lot of opportunities that we can explore going forward in our careers.
There were a lot of companies that we did not even know existed so for me the Fair made an outstanding impression. Shukla Aakanksha

What a fabulous day at the Careers Fair.
We have had so many people come to the stand asking such brilliant questions about us, enquiring what they can do moving forward and there has just been a real buzz. Sarah Fowler
