From the comfort of your own home/phone you can find out more about the opportunities available and apply. Just be sure to have your CV ready to send to employers on the day – see below for more advice and guidance.
This is the first in a series of online careers fairs organised by CareersBU and SUBU Volunteering.
Tops tips for students looking for part-time paid work and volunteering roles at Job Fairs.
- Have your CV ready to send to employers on the day. Usually we say to tailor a CV to different roles/organisations, but for a Jobs Fair that is impossible and the employers understand that. Find out more about how to write an effective CV.
- Apply throughout the year. MyCareerHub jobs board has part-time roles, placements, and graduate level opportunities available to apply for throughout the year.
- Consider volunteering. Find out more about the benefits of volunteering. Gain insights from our students into how volunteering can truly launch your career, develop your employability skills, and help the local community.
