Career fairs
Careers fairs and insight events are popular ways for employers to engage with our students.
We run a number of sector-specific careers fairs and insight events throughout the academic year, which is a great way to raise your profile on campus. The aim of these events is to make penultimate and final year students aware of the work experience, internships and permanent positions available within your company. We also encourage earlier years to attend the fairs as a useful way to develop their understanding of industry.
If you are interested in being added to our mailing list to be kept up to date on booking a place at our Careers Fair, or any of our other events and services, please email the employer team at employers@hw.ac.uk
