A new year, a new round of careers fairs. Whether you are a school leaver seeking an apprenticeship or internship, aiming to go to university, or chasing a graduate programme, there is a plethora of options out there and career fairs provide the opportunity to meet universities and potential employers.
At Signify, we are always on the hunt for young talent as we understand the strengths and value they bring to the workplace- from fresh skills, to questioning processes, to bringing new ideas – the list goes on! One of the best ways for us to connect with this future workforce and for the future workforce to understand what any organisation can offer is by attending careers fairs. Not only do they allow us to get first hand research and feedback, but they also allow us to gauge interest points for this young generation and make sure we continue to be attractive to the future talent.
In the case of the students, careers fairs create a space of opportunity and inspiration. They can open minds to the prospects of the workplace and bust the myth that the only route after college/school is university. Read on to understand why careers fairs are a great option for any business and students, and why we at Signify enjoy them so much.
