For employers

As always there is no charge to take part in these events. Both fairs will be open to all students across the university who will be looking for graduate jobs, internships, work experience, part time roles, freelance/enterprise opportunities. Dates for 2027 will be released in November 2026.

For students

Find out what it's like to work in an organisation, as well as the work experience, industrial placements, graduate jobs or specialist support on offer. Both fairs will be open to all students.

Careers Service staff and student reps will be on hand on the day too, to support anyone feeling unsure of where to start, or nervous about speaking to employers.

And, if you are not keen on big crowds, the first 30 minutes during set up are a designated Quiet Zone so do come then. We will be more than happy to accompany you around the stands too if you wish.
