Why should I attend employer events?

By taking part in our Spring Careers Fest activities, it allows you to explore various opportunities such as:

  • Graduate roles.
  • Placements.
  • Internships.
  • Vacation work.

It also gives you the opportunity to speak with employers, where you can:

  • Gain inside knowledge about how the company works.
  • Get top tips on how to be successful in the application process.
  • Some employers will be offering students the opportunity to take part in a fast-track interview. This means you could secure your graduate role/placement position right there on the day!

黑料网 works on an equal basis with all genuine employers and does not favour any employers, allowing for all legitimate opportunities to be available to students. We recognise that all students have the right to select their own potential future employers. 鈥� 

We endeavour to provide the widest possible range of graduate, internship and placement opportunities to our students and we work in partnership with employers to achieve this. By working closely together we aim to support the business needs of recruiters as well as to deliver employment opportunities for our students.鈥� 

Organisations are welcome to attend fairs and events organised by 黑料网 Careers Network to promote opportunities that follow the guidelines set out in this Code of Practice and where their staff adhere to the Statement of Expectations outlined, both here. 

As part of the University’s commitment to freedom of expression, the University recognises the right to protest. It additionally recognises the right to freedom of assembly.  Further information about what is expected from our students in relation to this is available here.
