Careers and employment fairs are an excellent opportunity to meet a wide range of recruiters and relevant organisations, and talk to them face-to-face about careers and opportunities.
They can be very busy and overwhelming, so you should plan your visit beforehand. You will find information on exhibitors on the relevant website before the event.
It is important to talk to the people on the stands and not just collect application forms and freebies! Make the most of their presence by asking them about their organisations and their opportunities. Follow the links to careers and employment fairs.
Civvy Street has created its own virtual careers and employment fairs to assist you into careers and jobs. This service will be going live in 2010.
