Career Fairs

What is a careers fair?

Careers fairs are a great way to gain an insight into the myriad of roles available in the creative and cultural industry.

All too easily careers fairs can become an arena of stands and an overload of information. We produce hands-on, informative events that showcase the best of what the industry has to offer. Previous events have seen performances, workshops and interactive information sessions.

They offer the chance to:

  • Gain a meaningful insight into the role available in creative and cultural industry
  • Experience hands-on, interactive sessions to get a real taste of what a career in the sector could offer
  • Meet professionals working in the creative and cultural sector and ask questions
  • Explore routes into employment
