Attending a job fair can be a great way to explore job opportunities, network with employers, and learn more about different industries. Countless students find work after attending a job fair. A career fair is an excellent chance to meet recruiters, interact with prospective coworkers, and investigate potential positions in a variety of sectors. Attending a job event allows students to take the next move in their careers 

Attending a career fair can be a valuable experience for any job seeker, whether you are a recent college graduate or someone looking to make a career change. These events provide a unique opportunity to connect with potential employers and learn more about different industries and job opportunities. The job fair attracted a diverse range of employers from various sectors, all of whom were looking for new employees. 

The spring Career Fair held in Twickenham was an excellent opportunity to meet potential employers in person and learn more about them. The career fair had many exhibitors from different areas and had grown considerably since last year. Career officers have the opportunity to speak with employers and explore open jobs. It was a wonderful opportunity to network with hiring managers and get a better understanding of the company culture and job requirements. We exchanged information details with many of the companies that participate.  Many of the exhibitors have indicated an interest in collaborating with LSST and making contacts. They have expressed an interest in joining the LSST Career Fair in the future.  

 

We discussed even arranging events that will include a 1:1 face-to-face discussion with students regarding the various positions that they have open. Personally, I manage to speak to potential applicants and forward student CVs that are searching for employment. It provided me with direct contact with those who can provide job and placement possibilities for LSST students. A jobs fair was beneficial in promoting LSST and boosting their interest in including LSST on future career fairs and employment lists.
