What students and employers say about attending career expos

“As a recruiter I like you to get to know who I am. I also like to get to know you, so you become more than a name on a paper. It really does make a difference if someone can say in their application that they met me at the career expo and we discussed x.”

Dylan Brockett
Talent Acquisition Advisor, BDO

“By hearing people’s stories, I found out information I wouldn’t have known otherwise, as well as learning how to sign up for graduate programme roles.”

Bella Good
Student, Bachelor of Business in Human Resource Management and Employment Relations & International Business and Strategy

“I’ve heard it said before, but it was interesting to hear someone in a recruiting role talk about how important it is to think about what you bring and who you are.”

Eve McLoughlan
Student, Bachelor of Business and Bachelor of Laws
