Since the success of Student Fest in 2020 we have launched another online event all about careers. The ‘Job Board’ zone was extremely helpful to lots of people so we wanted to create more content on this topic! We have essentially turned this zone into it’s very own event! If you’d like to visit ‘Careers Fayre’, another interactive event to explore at your own pace, click the link below! It’s a great place to go when thinking about your steps to your dream career.
