Fairs at City

We run sector-specific fairs to enable the largest attendance drawn from our diverse student assembly. The fairs are a useful and easy way to meet the students and advertise the opportunities within your organisation and what the requirements are for graduates to be successful applicants with you.

Why students attend

Students go to meet with human resources/recruitment staff as well as recent graduates who have joined your organisation, i.e. representatives who can give an insight into the job tasks, company culture and career paths you offer. On some occasions, students bring their CV and would like for you to check it to see what they need to do/complete in order to be considered for a position.

They also like to meet and network with City alumni, and we therefore welcome all City graduates currently working in your organisation to get involved in the fair.

Fair Promotion

The fairs are advertised across campus a few weeks before the actual event date. Details of a fair are distributed through the following media:

  1. the Careers website
  2. the news section of the main City University page
  3. Citynews Bulletin to students
  4. City CareersHub, our online Careers portal for students
  5. large posters across main campus and within the careers library

Fair Catalogue

Our exhibitor package includes your company entry in a fair catalogue. Copies will be available to students in print and online before and after the fair.

You will also have the opportunity to place additional advertisement within the brochure to enhance your brand image and marketing before and after the fair.
