We provide students with a variety of excellent opportunities to meet employers. 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.

GET PLACEMENT READY

A work placement is a learning experience both in a personal and professional way, so it is important to make the most of the opportunity and stand out from the crowd. 

T‌o help you do this, we have created a 'Get Placement Ready' Playlist on Personal Best, where you can find engaging and helpful resources and activities to improve your wellbeing on placement, and how best to prepare and develop before, during and after your placement.

To access these, just log into Personal Best using your University login (ensuring you are connected to the VPN).
