The first session will inspire you to think about how you market yourself to employers and create an impact – this will be delivered by Jim Eastwood AKA Jedi Jim from BBC 1’s the Apprentice.
Jim will be followed by Simon Reichwald, Director of Bright Futures and expert in the graduate recruitment market, who will talk about the employment climate and how to make sure you position your skills and experience to stand out to employers.
You will also learn from Teach First about how to network and will be able to apply this with a group of employers who will attend on the day.
